In other Werkself news, Kicker journalists Stephan van Nocks and Benni Hofmann also report that the club’s attempts to acquire Spanish fullback Fran Garcia have failed.
Current B04 #2 Andrey Lunev sits on an expiring contract and has been recently plagued by back problems. Pentz maintains an estimated market value of €1.5 million in the latest transfermarkt listings. The Kicker journalists note that a transfer sum in the low six-figures is being discussed. The 26-year-old lost his staring spot with his Ligue 1 side after the first seven match days.
Van Nocks and Hofmann also reported that, earlier today, Real Madrid opted to exercise their “clawback option” on fullback Fran Garcia; a player both the Leverkusen coaching staff and managerial team had been pursuing. The German journalists report that Real Madrid blocked Bayer’s acquisition by pulling the clause, then loaning the 23-year-old straight back to Royal Vallecano.
Garcia will be due back at Real this summer.
