After being relegated from the Bundesliga and staying in the upper house of Hertha BSC, Greuther Fürth will probably opt to buy striker Jessic Ngankam (21). So far, the Berlin talent, who got going late after an injury during the loan to the “Kleeblatt”, was considered too expensive for the SpVgg. According to “Kicker”, the purchase is still in the pipeline. It would be the highest transfer fee that Fürth has ever paid for a player.
According to the magazine, the period for the purchase option, which was put at 1.5 million euros in previous reports, ends at the end of May. It is said that Hertha does not want to let the home-grown plant go completely with the right to buy it back. As far as Fürth is concerned, according to the “Kicker”, Ngankam should not be committed to an immediate, profitable resale. The junior national player is firmly planned for the 2nd league.
Ngankam had torn his cruciate ligament at the start in Fürth and only came back at the season finale when Middle Franconia was relegated. In the last four games he was in the starting XI after two joker inserts, where he still scored three points, including one goal against Dortmund and one against Augsburg.
