However, the sheet is not yet more specific. For ItaKura, Mönchengladbach had received 10.5 million euros. According to reports, at least part of it should be invested in reinforcements. The market value of the Antwerp plant is estimated at 10 million. Due to his expiring contract, van den Bosch could be more favorable when selling this summer.

“We have some options and keep our eyes open. We can react at any time when a door opens,” Gladbach’s sports director Roland Virkus recently given a record with a view to a possible ITaKura replacement and generally listed: “The transfer market has started very slowly this year, perhaps also through the club World Cup. And when money comes into the league as a result of the sale of Florian Wirtz from Leverkusen Liverpool, then it will be reinvested abroad. “

This is how the TM community reacts to Gladbach’s Van-Den-Bosch rumor

Van den Bosch had developed into an undisputed regular player at Antwerp last season, always in the starting XI at 30 league inserts. A possible change to the Lower Rhine is also much discussed in the TM rumor mill. “I definitely see a need on the defensive. With only four Bundesliga -compatible central defenders to go into the season, of which one still functions as a backup for the right -back, I consider them negligent,” writes the user “Misantroph” with a view to the current squad situation of the foals in defense.

TM-UNER “Ragazzo” says: “A certain need may be there and potential for the player, but we have other construction sites and for exactly this position probably no +/- 7 million.

With regard to the sporting qualities, user cedreipo attests: “He is not super fast, but also not slow. It makes up for his average top speed through outstanding anticipation. There is no key difference to Ko. The user who claimed here that van den Bosch is not really known or interprets the body size in connection with his motor skills. A Virgil van Dijk looked similar at this age – this is simply a development -related phase that you change with good coordination training. ”
