Leno, Ortega and Co. traded at Hertha BSC

At Hertha BSC, a change in the goalkeeper position is looming in the summer. Marcel Lotka left Berlin for Borussia Dortmund. Those responsible would probably not put any obstacles in the way of Alexander Schwolow. Meanwhile, several prominent candidates are associated with the capital club.

Who will stand between the posts at Hertha BSC in the coming season is still completely open. Alexander Schwolow has not been able to meet the expectations of the old lady in the past two years and even lost his regular place to Marcel Lotka last season.

But since Lotka is moving on to BVB, Hertha has to reposition itself in goal. “picture” now brings five possible candidates in connection with the almost relegated.

The tabloid names Stefan Ortega, among others. The goalkeeper is leaving Arminia Bielefeld on a free transfer and is currently without a new employer. The 29-year-old has recently been repeatedly associated with FC Schalke 04. But with the commitment of coach Frank Kramer, the royal blue chances should disappear.

Horn and Leno candidates for Hertha BSC?

In addition, “Bild” speculates about a move from Timo Horn to Berlin. The 29-year-old now has a difficult time at 1. FC Köln, as Steffen Baumgart relies on Marvin Schwäbe as number one in the cathedral city. As it goes on, Effzeh would let his top earner go.

With Bernd Leno, it is said that even a national player could be drawn to Hertha BSC. The 30-year-old has lost his regular place at Arsenal. If he were to move to the Spree, Leno would have to forego a lot of salary if he were to collect a total of six million euros per season in London.

“Bild” also names Odisseas Vlachodimos (Benfica) and Philipp Köhn (RB Salzburg) as other candidates. The latter “is on the Berlin list,” writes the newspaper.
