Amoura says goodbye: Will he stay at VfL Wolfsburg?

Amoura says goodbye: Will he stay at VfL Wolfsburg?

The football world is turned upside down and VfL Wolfsburg is making headlines. After the successful start to the new season, where the Wolves triumphed 3-1 against 1. FC Heidenheim, sports director Sebastian Schindzielorz is more than relieved. “We are very happy with the way we played both with and without the ball,” said Schindzielorz, who also emphasized that one shouldn’t get excited too early, after all, it was only the first day of the match. Heidenheim is currently not considered the strongest team.

The transfer activities come at an exciting time, as the summer transfer window closes on September 1st. Wolfsburg is looking for reinforcements, especially in attack and defense. In addition to a right wing player, a new striker and a central defender could also be targeted. In particular, Mohammed Amoura, who came off the bench in Heidenheim and scored the third goal from a penalty, could soon become the focus of all transfer negotiations.

The future of Amoura

Amoura's future is still up in the air. There are rumors of a move to Benfica Lisbon, but the Portuguese club has temporarily withdrawn because it does not want to pay the required €35 ​​million plus bonuses. Amoura had reportedly already reached a verbal agreement with Benfica, but Wolfsburg stuck to their demands and were unwilling to offer a discount. Schindzielorz confirmed that there are discussions about Amoura, but stressed that the player remains under contract. The Wolves also have a plan B ready if Amoura actually leaves.

Nikola Krstovic, who was considered a potential replacement, moved to Atalanta Bergamo because the €25 million asking price was too high for Wolfsburg. This shows how seriously the situation surrounding Amoura is being pursued. Nevertheless, the 24-year-old's heart beats for the Bundesliga after he moved to Wolfsburg from Union Saint-Gilloise. He impressed there last season with 22 goals and 7 assists.

Wolfsburg's financial status

Considering the financial situation, Wolksburg's transfer record is quite remarkable. In the last five years, the club has generated a total of -110.45 million euros. This is reflected in the overall transfer balances of the Bundesliga, where only a few teams have positive balance sheets. VfL appears as a club that has high expectations, but is also strict in its financial decisions.

It remains adventurous for the fans, because the coming days could be crucial for squad planning. Schindzielorz has stressed that they are prepared to act quickly if Amoura's situation changes. So will Wolves keep the key player, or will the Algerian head to Lisbon? The coming weeks are likely to be crucial.

Overall, the team is in a good position and has gained courage from the successful start to the season. But as is often the case in football, everything can change quickly. The next big adventure is coming up for Wolfsburg, and the fans can be curious to see how the situation surrounding Mohammed Amoura will develop.
