FC Barcelona is reportedly keeping a close watch on Hoffenheim striker Fisnik Asllani, who has started the season in outstanding form. The 23-year-old forward has already scored five goals and provided two assists for his club this season, helping Hoffenheim secure a mid-table position in the Bundesliga. His performances have drawn attention across Europe, especially from clubs seeking a young, proven goal-scorer at a reasonable price.
Barcelona are monitoring Fisnik Asllani, as the promising 23 year old striker from Hoffenheim has a written release clause for next summer. Barcelona have been informed. A move to a European top club is fully planned, and his future club are expected to compete in the Champions League. 'My dream club have always been FC Barcelona - I've always wanted to play there,' he told Sport Bild a few days ago.
Things always happen quickly. First, he was a potential candidate for sale in the media, now it's about a contract extension. It's a joy to watch him play at the moment, the most important thing is that he's fit - we know what we have in him. He also has an outstanding character, which is also extremely important. Our goal is for him to stay fit and continue playing like this, then we'll all be very happy with him,
Leverkusen got off to a quick start, with Quansah scoring six minutes into his Bundesliga debut after connecting with Alejandro Grimaldo's free-kick and heading past Oliver Baumann. However, Quansah was caught cold at the other end when Asllani managed to evade him in the box before firing beyond Mark Flekken at the near post to equalise in the 25th minute.
Sandro Wagner turned down the offer from TSG Hoffenheim, despite being their preferred candidate for the next season, indicating a potential agreement with another Bundesliga club.
