Report: Volland in the focus of VfL Wolfsburg – Kovac for reunification

Only under Gisdol more games

Just a few days ago, Kevin Volland declared that he could basically imagine a return to the Bundesliga. Now the first interested party appears to be on the scene. As the “Brunswick newspaper” reported, the center forward from AS Monaco has become the focus of VfL Wolfsburg – and of his coach Niko Kovac.

The 51-year-old had already guided the attacker to the Principality and also suggested it as a possible newcomer during his time at Bayern Munich. From the summer there could be a reunion with the “Wolves”, for which the coach is said to have spoken out. Only under Markus Gisdol (93) has Volland played more games in his career than under Kovac (68).

The EM participant from 2021 still has a working paper with the Ligue 1 club until 2024, so a fee would be due. He recently ruled out the fact that Volland would change this summer to the “ran.de” portal, but left a back door open. “I still have a year of contract and since I feel very comfortable, also privately, I’m staying in Monaco until 2024. And after the four years you have to see if you can extend here again, if you sign again in the Bundesliga or what else you feel like doing,” explained the 30-year-old, who has played for Bayer Leverkusen and TSG Hoffenheim was active.

In general, after his time abroad, he is “definitely drawn back to Germany, home, we want to live in the Allgäu again after his career,” said the native of Marktoberdorf about his family’s wish. “But you have to see what exactly happens next. I’ll be 31 next year, I have a family with two children, so everything goes into a decision like this. So far we have always found a good solution.” With a market value of 10 million euros, Volland is one of the ten most valuable German centre-forwards.

TM users are positive about the possible transfer of Volland to Wolfsburg

In the transfer market community, there is a positive attitude towards a transfer of Volland to VfL. “It would always fit. Kovac wants experienced people, we need a striker, Volland wants to go back to Germany and Kovac and Volland already know each other from Monaco. He’s not the classic 9, but still a player who could fit in well. In addition, he delivered well everywhere, no matter which station,” writes user “Sascha3599”. And “PiotrNowak” says: “After an unfortunate season in Monaco, a change is not unlikely. Wolfsburg could fit there before he returns to Munich in 2025 to finish his career with the lions.

In my opinion, this change would be really good for everyone! Wolfsburg will certainly want to attack Europe again in the next 2 years, Volland would probably have his regular place and the earnings will also fit. …
