18 goals involved in the current season – Marvin Ducksch’s offensive power would also like to have Union Berlin in his ranks. Yesterday, Monday, it was announced that the Köpenickers are interested in the Werder Bremen striker, who can leave the Green-Whites with a contractually agreed payment of 7.5 million euros.
Ducksch would not be a bargain, but Union could probably raise this sum in a Champions League qualification and save themselves arduous negotiation work. But hurry is required. As the ‘Bild’ reports, the said exit clause is only valid until June 1st – that’s a good five weeks.
On the other hand, the Berliners will know by then whether they will be playing in the Champions League next season. In addition, the triggering of the clause in the Ducksch contract could also be possible if the Irons miss the premier class. And who knows what transfer fee Werder would ultimately agree to if the 29-year-old’s price was freely negotiable after June 1?
Werder wants to keep Ducksch
The working paper is normally valid until June 2024 – so not forever. The following applies to Werder: either collect the fee or extend it with Ducksch. “He’s in excellent shape. We want to keep the quality in the squad and go into the next season with him.”positions manager Clemens Fritz.
At the Osterdeich, however, they also know that they don’t hold the reins at Ducksch in their hands. As can be heard from the Rhineland on Tuesday, a successor is currently emerging: Dawid Kownacki (26), whose contract with Fortuna Düsseldorf expires in the summer.
