Niclas Füllkrug drew attention to himself with his World Cup performance. Two goals, one assist - plus ten goals in the first half of the Bundesliga season: how long can Werder Bremen hold on to the attacker?

Füllkrug's contract with Werder runs until 2025. At the same time, the green-whites are not on a bed of roses financially and could use a transfer fee of millions. This is all the more true given that at the age of 29, Füllkrug will hardly be able to increase its market value in the years to come.

According to Sky transfer expert Florian Plettenberg, a change in winter is already possible. "It is possible that he will leave Werder. Maybe in winter or in summer. Werder needs money and Füllkrug can bring it," said Plettenberg on the program "Transfer Update - the show".

The rumors are fueled by consultant Simon Conning. Conning is head of the Crown Football agency, whose German partner agency think forward is in charge of Füllkrug. Conning told Sky that "a change is within the realm of possibility by summer at the latest". Now you want to check how the transfer modalities could look like.

Recently, even FC Bayern is said to have asked about the filling jug. A winter transfer would be a double-edged sword for Werder. On the one hand, the Northern Lights could do well financially. On the other hand, a goal scorer's departure would jeopardize the sporting goals. After an impressive first half of the season, Werder is in ninth place with 21 points. However, staying up in the league is not yet guaranteed.
