Patrick Wimmer before change: RB Leipzig grabs Wolfsburg star!
The summer promises to be hot, especially for Austrian international Patrick Wimmer. The ÖFB team player, who impressed at VfL Wolfsburg last season, is considering a move. On his list of interested parties are RB Leipzig and Brighton & Hove Albion. That reports Laola1.
Wimmer excelled in the Bundesliga, scoring three goals and providing four assists in 29 appearances. After a strong season, his market value is estimated at around 18 million euros, but the transfer fee for a move is at least 20 million euros. The clubs' desire is great, especially since the Wolfsburg player still has a contract until 2027.
Interest from several directions
There was already speculation last year about a possible move to RB Leipzig when the Saxons were looking for a successor to Dani Olmo. These rumors have now flared up again. Managing Director Sport Marcel Schäfer, who has good connections to Wolfsburg, could get the deal rolling. As the Wolfsburger Allgemeine Zeitung reports, Wimmer is again on RB Leipzig's shopping list. RBLive adds that concrete discussions should only take place after the coach has been hired.
But Leipzig is not alone in looking for Wimmer. Brighton & Hove Albion are also interested. Coach Fabian Hürzeler has the Austrian winger on his wish list. Wimmer could even sign a four-year contract with the English team, but is hesitant due to the uncertainty about a possible offer from Leipzig. An exciting race for the ÖFB star could be brewing here.
The coming weeks will show where Patrick Wimmer will ultimately end up. Negotiations are still in the pipeline, but interest in the talented player is growing. What is happening around the transfer market is causing excitement and anticipation among fans and experts alike.
