Alexander Isak (25) could not prevail as a storm talent during his time at BVB – very different in San Sebastián and Newcastle. Today he is one of the most valuable footballers in the world and could get a striker-Rochade that leads to moving over 200 million euros and moving Dortmund’s Maximilian Beier (22) to FC Brentford.

According to this, the Bees offered 55 million euros pound plus 5 million in bonuses on Wednesday. Only Florian Wirtz (22) and Kai Havertz (26) moved more money in German football history (for statistics). For Brentford it would be a clear transfer record. It is unclear whether the BVB, who actually wants to keep Beier, accepts the offer. The fact that Lars Ricken and Co. have to deal with it is only logical: only three times the Dortmund took up for one player. In addition to the Londoners, Aston Villa is also said to have an eye on the ex-Hoffenheimer.
From England it was said on Wednesday that Brentford – as already in the summer of 2024 – was interested in an obligation by the German international. However, this only applies in the event that Newcastle United previously agreed on the sale of center forward Yoane Wissa (28). This in turn is the prerequisite for the magpies to meet the striking Isak to switch to Liverpool FC.
Both Isak and Liverpool as well as Newcastle and Wissa should already be trade in trade – only the clubs have to give the green light. The Reds flashed in Newcastle with an offer for Isak of 138 million euros, while Brentford did not convince the 46 million package that Magpies proposed for Wissa. If these two changes take place in the last days of the transfer period, Brentford urgently needs replacement.
The market value of Beier has dropped at BVB
Beier moved from TSG Hoffenheim to BVB in the summer of 2024 for 28.5 million euros, where he commuted between starting eleven and the bank and was directly involved in 16 goals in 47 games. Compared to his rapid ascent in the 2023/24 season, the 1.85 meter tall stagnated. This was also noticeable in its market value, which dropped from 30 million to 25 million euros.
The competition in the Sturmzentrum of the Dortmund is even greater behind the Serhou Guirassy (29) set when BVB presents the courted Fábio Silva (23) from the Wolverhampton Wanderers as a new addition. The team of coach Niko Kovac is filled with the offensive outer lanes, on which Beier was also used. TM-user “Englaender” writes in the rumor mill: “Unfortunately, Beier is not a system fit for BVB-therefore an departure makes sense. The money should be invested in players that fit the system.”

In the meantime, Wissa would leave big footsteps in Brentford Beier, he was one of the five best scorers of the Premier League in the previous season. In the Bees squad, Kevin Schade (23) and Vitaly Janelt (27) play two German professionals who are among the top performers.
