Werder Bremen striker Niclas Füllkrug has reiterated that he will not consider a move until the end of the season.


“I want to turn this really good season into gold. Talks with other clubs would prevent me from giving my best. In short, I have no pressure. A new contract could be signed between May and the beginning of July – whether at Werder or another club,” Füllkrug told Bild.

The 30-year-old insists his Germany teammates from Bayern Munich are not trying to persuade him to move to the Allianz Arena.

“I get on very well with the boys. I can totally identify with the way they play football. But we don’t talk about such things there.”

If the German record champions were to come knocking, Füllkrug insists he would be “quite relaxed”.

Füllkrug’s contract with Werder runs until 2025. He’s the Bundesliga’s top scorer this season with 16 goals.
