Bundesliga club Werder Bremen obviously does not expect national player Niclas Füllkrug to remain on the Weser.
The club made the 30-year-old attacker an offer for an early contract extension. But Clemens Fritz, head of professional football at Werder, told the “kicker”: “We can only move within the economic framework that we can afford.” A signature of Füllkrug under a new working paper is therefore considered rather unlikely.
For Fritz, there is no question that Bremen want to continue working with the top scorer of the past Bundesliga season: “We want to extend Niclas, otherwise we would not have made him the offer,” said the 42-year-old.
Füllkrug’s current contract runs until June 30, 2025. The center forward was recently associated with the Italian club AC Florenz and league rival Bayer Leverkusen.
