Jurasek candidate for Benfica
Rumors of a switch for national player Robin Gosens to VfL Wolfsburg persist. We don’t want to comment on this, Wolfe sporting director Marcel Schäfer said on Monday. But: « It’s no secret that we only have one player at left-back with Nicolas Cozza. » The 24-year-old Frenchman, who came from Montpellier last winter for 500,000 euros, has so far only played six matches with VfL. games – he was never in the starting lineup.

« Of course we look around and hope to find a good solution in terms of sport and business, » said Schäfer. But we are « convinced that we can also absorb it with the group ». With Kevin Paredes (20), Bartol Franjic (23), Mickey van de Ven (22) and Yannick Gerhardt (29), VfL has several players who could also play on the left side of defence.

A player of Gosen’s caliber would « of course » do VfL good, says Wolfsburg captain Maximilian Arnold (29). With the departure of former captain Josuha Guilavogui (32), the group has lost a lot of experience and routine. Attributes that Gosens, currently at Inter Milan, with three Coppa Italia victories and 160 Serie A appearances, can undoubtedly be attributed. A transfer fee of 15-20 million euros, as reported by Italian media, is too much for VfL. In addition, there is still a tenacious competitor in advertising with Union Berlin.
Meanwhile, David Jurasek is no longer an option. The 22-year-old Czech has been linked with the Lower Saxony side but was unveiled as a new signing by Benfica on Monday. There he signed a contract until 2028, the Portuguese club officially confirmed the transfer fee of 14 million euros.
