Werder Bremen have completed the deal to send Polish striker Dawid Kownacki to Hertha on loan.<\/a> The former Polish international heads back to the 2. Bundesliga having only just returned from a loan stint with Fortuna D\u00fcsseldorf last season. Virtually all German footballing media outlets confirm that an automatic purchase option is part of the deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Kicker and Sport Bild<\/strong><\/a> both report that Bremen will receive a sum of approximately \u20ac2.5m for the player they once acquired on a free. The purchase option will be automatically triggered when Kownacki reaches a certain number of appearances. This should pose no problem for the 28-year-old, who has still been able to thrive at the 2. Bundesliga level.\u00a0<\/p>\n

From Hertha’s perspective, Kownacki’s signing heralds the end of rumors linking Hoffenheim striker M\u00ebrgim Berisha with a move to Charlottenburg.<\/a> Kicker <\/strong>confirmed yesterday that the German capital city club had only tepid interest in the former German international and hadn’t tendered a concrete offer. Kownacki scored 13 2. Bundesliga goals for D\u00fcsseldorf last season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In terms of what the transaction means for Bremen, the Hanseaten<\/em> clearly had no faith in Kownacki anymore despite the fact that an injury to Marvin Ducksch leaves them in dire need of a number nine.<\/a> The burning question as to how Bremen plan to cope with this problem yields a rather interesting rumor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The club’s reliable Deichstube<\/strong><\/a> fan-site reports that Werder are actually interested in acquiring RB Leipzig’s Andr\u00e9 Silva on a permanent basis. The former Eintracht Frankfurt star came nowhere close to meeting expectations during his recent Bremen loan stint,<\/a> but the north Germans may still want him.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Silva scored one goal (a penalty) in seven appearances for Ole Werner’s SV last spring. The Portuguese international also missed from the penalty spot and only logged six minutes as a sub in Bremen’s final eight league fixtures of the season.<\/p>\n

It may nevertheless be the case that a club eager to make excuses for Silva<\/a> might be prepared to make more. If nothing else, Silva could be procured on the cheap. The one-time \u20ac45m-valued player is only valued at \u20ac4m today.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Like another RB Leipzig striker who departed the Saxons this summer, Yussuf Poulsen<\/a>, Silva must be willing to take a significant pay cut in order to potentially gain playing time. Salary issues have hampered Leipzig’s attempts to move their expensive transfer flop in the past.\u00a0<\/p>\n
