What's you opinion on Horn, Leno, Trapp, Karius, Goretzka, Selke, Gruezo, Wendell, Sule, Bittencourt...thanks!
and can we afford any of them?
Horn: One of the biggest goalkeeper talents and he is rated very highly. Before Xmas he has extented his contract until 2019, but a 9m€ clause was implemented so he ll prob stay at Cologne for 1 or 2 seasons more and then he could think about taking a new challenge. Liverpool was interested and clubs like Dortmund could be very interested too, as Weidenfeller ll leave latest 2016. Definitely chances to get him.
Leno: Another one of the bigger goalkeeper talents. I rate him very highly, but there is still a blunder there from time to time following by class performances. I dont see him leaving Leverkusen any time soon. If u r intzerested in a keeper, then there r other, cheaper options..like
Trapp: Another great product of the legendary keeper school of Gerry Ehrmann from Kaiserlautern. His contract ends 2016 so I think he ll leave Frankfurt at the end of the season. A clause of around 4-5m€ is reported.
or
Karius: Made his breakthrough this season and it was a little bit surprising to see him extending his contract beginning of the year. It is very likely that Karius used his expiring contract to implement a relatively cheap buyout clause.
Goretzka is one of the biggest CM talents. Before he went to Schalke all German top clubs wanted him..Bayern after him for years..also the big guns from England, Spain and Italy. Unfortunately he has been injured this season, but is expected to be back soon. IMO he is going to become the next big thing and its impossible to get him now..he ll end up at bayern in 2 or 3 years. No chance for Juve to get this player.
Selke: Played and won a fantastic U19 EC and also became top scorer. Had a great offer from Benfica last summer, but decided to stay at Bremen for less money. He has shown some good performances for Bremen and is their light at the end of the tunnel. He is still very raw and needs to play one or two seasons before making the next step. Bremen is notoriously skint, so they have to sell him at one point, If he wont extent beyond 2018.
Süle: One of the big CB talents and IMO he is a bomb and ll be WC is some years..he has totally impressed and convinced me. What a player. Unfortunately he ruptured his ACL so he needs some time to be back. Hoffenheim is very well aware of his qualities and he wont leave for cheap. I think he ll stay there for at least another season, but 2016 he could maybe leave. TBO i dont see big chances for Juve to get him, but not impossible.
Bittencourt is a good AM player with good performances for Hannover. Dortmund have a buy-back option, but I have no idea, if they want him back or not. If not, he should be easily gettable.
Havent seen enough of Wendell or Gruezo to make an asssessment.
So only Goretzka looks impossible with Leno and Süle highly unlikely.
