Manchester United have expressed an interest in buying Hoffenheim’s 21-year-old striker, Maximilian Beyer.
As reported by Sport Bild (via Sport Witness), the Red Devils have proactively inquired about the terms of a potential transfer for the young talent.
Beier is also attracting attention from Liverpool, Nottingham Forest, Brentford and Bayer Leverkusen.
However, it is United who have made the first move by inquiring about his release clause, which is currently set at €32.5 million.
This clause, typical of German football contracts, is reduced by 2.5 million euros every year.
This progressive reduction could potentially make the deal more attractive over time, but the current price remains significant for any interested club.
Beier’s performance last season for Hoffenheim certainly turned heads.
He played 35 games, primarily as a striker, and scored 16 goals with three assists.
These stats highlight his potential as a future star, making him an enticing prospect for clubs looking to bolster their attacking options.
Liverpool and Nottingham Forest, along with Brentford, are also in the mix, potentially creating a competitive bidding environment.
Beier is a versatile right-footed striker, adept at using his left foot effectively.
His game is defined by precise timing and anticipation, which allows him to exploit space and make calculated runs forward.
Beier excels at creating and finishing chances, displaying exceptional dribbling, spatial awareness and the ability to turn defensive situations into scoring opportunities.
His composure in the box and ability to finish under pressure make him an exceptional talent.
Although his off-the-ball pressing and aerial skills need improvement, the German’s ability to play across the front line and provide both feet makes him a valuable asset.
