Overview
- Reports from Sky and Deichstube suggest Werder Bremen is considering a move for Julian Brandt, but no formal agreement has been reached.
- Brandt's inconsistent performances at Borussia Dortmund and a 'difficult situation' described by sporting director Sebastian Kehl have fueled transfer speculation.
- A potential transfer is complicated by expected wage reductions, making the move unlikely according to current reports.
- Lothar Matthäus has endorsed the potential transfer as an opportunity for Brandt to rejuvenate his career away from intense scrutiny.
- Born in Bremen, Brandt has personal ties to the region but has never played for Werder Bremen, despite his younger brother's past involvement with the club's U23 team.
