Prominent Bundesliga Teams Eyeing Hertha Berlin's Linus Gechter

Potential Transition for Young Defender Gechter

The 21-year-old has a contract with Hertha Berlin that extends until 2027, but reports suggest he may seek an exit as soon as this winter. Should that opportunity not materialize, the defender is expected to aim for a transfer next summer.

Current Evaluation and Performance

Gechter holds a market value of €2.5 million according to transfermarkt, and he has participated in 7 matches this season, contributing to Hertha’s position in eighth place in the 2.Bundesliga.

Bundesliga Clubs in Need of Defensive Reinforcements

Several teams at the top of the Bundesliga table are on the lookout for center-back options. Eintracht Frankfurt is one such team, as they are keen to bolster their defensive line due to early-season struggles in that area. Reports indicate a potential interest in Inter Milan’s Yann-Aurel Bisseck.

Other Possible Destinations

VfB Stuttgart could also be a viable option for Gechter. Their recent acquisition of Finn Jeltsch last January suggests they may be open to bringing in young talent. Signing Gechter would allow Stuttgart to gradually incorporate him into their squad before assigning him a more significant role in the upcoming summer. Nevertheless, Stuttgart already has a number of center-backs in their roster.
