Overview
- Hoffenheim confirmed late Sunday that Fisnik Asllani did not travel to the club's Seefeld training camp, a move outlets say signals he is preparing to leave the club.
- Multiple reports say Leipzig and Asllani are close on personal terms and plan to trigger a reported release clause in the region of €29–30 million to complete the transfer.
- Leipzig want to clear a centre‑forward spot before formally activating the clause, with Rômulo, Conrad Harder and Samba Konate named as the players whose departure could create room.
- Asllani broke out in 2025–26 with roughly 11 goals and 10 assists across competitions, a campaign that drew earlier interest from Barcelona and Borussia Dortmund.
- Hoffenheim view the sale as part of a wider summer overhaul that has generated nearly €100 million in transfers and would make Asllani one of many outgoing players this window.
