Mario Götze: BVB farewell apparently decided - two Bundesliga clubs vie for World Cup hero

Mario Götze is likely to end at Borussia Dortmund. Is his expiring contract renewed again? Now BVB bosses Zorc and Watzke have spoken.

Update from March 24, 2020: Mario Götze also played no real role at BVB in the second half of the season. The offensive player has been able to run a full 14 minutes in the Bundesliga so far. The league is currently paused because of the coronavirus pandemic * until April 30th - but the Rio hero should not be used more often after that either.

As the Ruhr Nachrichten now reports, the decision about Götze's future at Borussia Dortmund was made months ago. The 27-year-old's contract, which expires in the summer, should not be extended.

Hertha BSC and another Bundesliga club, not mentioned, should deal with Götze. Because of the currently uncertain future due to the Corona crisis, prospective customers will have to wait a bit.

Mario Götze: BVB farewell fixed? Zorc and Watzke become clear

Update from January 13, 2020: What's next with Mario Götze ? The 2014 World Cup hero has a difficult time at Borussia Dortmund . Most recently, Hertha BSC was traded as the future club of the 27-year-old.

Dortmund's sports director Michael Zorc was now asked about Götze's expiring contract - and whether his time at BVB would end soon. "That has not yet been finally decided," said Zorc in the dpa interview. He explained that Götze would of course like to play more. “We are talking to Mario. I spoke to his father before Christmas. I spoke to him again in Marbella. We will surely get together in spring and then make a final decision, ”Zorc added.

Mario Götze: Out at BVB? Bosses with clear announcements

Managing Director Hans-Joachim Watzke also denied to the world that saying goodbye to Götze had already been decided. There is no new stand, you want to wait for the sporting development, said the BVB boss.

Götze's former team-mate Thomas Müller also has rumors of change - and possibly even a return to the DFB jersey?

BVB-Aus by Götze probably decided - fans hope for departure in winter

Update from January 7, 2020: Is Mario Götze already in the current winter transfer period or does the 2014 world champion expire his contract in the summer? If it were up to the Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund , an immediate change would be the only right solution.

Especially since Götze with seven million euros annually is one of the better-earning players in the squad of the current Bundesliga fourth. Thrown out BVB money for a player on the substitute bank? For many a question for which there is a clear answer: "I am happy when the chapter Mario Götze comes to an end", says a user via Twitter and is met with ample approval from the black and yellow fan camp.

Mario Götze before leaving BVB: Fans assume greed for money and lack of sporting ambition

The report of the failed contract negotiations between the club and the player (see update of January 6, 2020) was particularly bitter, which is why Götze is accused of greed for money and lack of sporting ambition.

I am happy when the chapter Mario # Götze comes to an end.
The € 60 million was a very expensive romance that was allowed.
For one thing I am # Götze grateful: That he signed the contract in the summer
(€ 7 million) did not renew. #BVB

“Does that look like gratitude for the club that stood behind you in the most difficult time ?! More salary here, hand money there, advertising without end and playing football has become a minor matter, ”the fan continues.

Another user says: “He asked for ten million with his new contract and was not ready to go down. With the exception of the last second half, he brings no performance and only unrest to the team. ”

Another BVB fan sees the Götze personnel as an exemplary problem, especially since the 27-year-old is not the first to have tried a second attempt at Borussia Dortmund - and at the same time appeals to the BVB appendix and the club management. “I hope that after the Götze case, these unspeakable return campaigns will finally come to an end! This constant indulgence in the past should finally stop, with those responsible and also with us fans! "

Götze hammer! BVB-Aus apparently decided - strikes another Bundesliga club?

Update from January 6, 2020: According to reports, Mario Götze would have to forego a substantial part of his current salary (around ten million euros) for a contract extension at BVB. The World Cup hero from Rio de Janeiro apparently doesn't want to do that.

The negotiations are apparently so stuck that a farewell to Götze is decided in summer 2020. So it reports picture on Monday evening. According to the report, the 27-year-old wants to expire his contract and then change free of charge. In the event of a transfer, a handsome hand money could also be waving.

Dortmund's Bundesliga competitor Hertha BSC is said to continue to be interested in a Götze commitment (see update from December 19, 2019). Player Ann-Kathrin reportedly prefers to go abroad. Matching: Apparently FC Internazionale from the fashion metropolis of Milan is also vying for the offensive midfielder.

Klinsi comments on possible transfer hammer: "That will be normal"

Update from December 19, 2019: Hertha allegedly deals with World Cup hero Mario Götze. That would be a transfer hammer. However, transfers in such dimensions could soon become a habit among Berliners. "Thanks to our constellation with our investor, we have very different goals in the medium and long term and approach it differently," explained coach Klinsmann after the 1-0 win at Bayer Leverkusen and added: "Whether Mario will be speculated or not about other Champions League players - that will be normal. That will be our future. We're also looking for them. ”

Transfer hammer in the Bundesliga? Klinsi reportedly hot for Dortmund's World Cup hero

First report from December 18, 2019:

Berlin - The Hertha BSC project is not only one of the most exciting in the capital, but also in the Bundesliga, the Berliners have attracted a lot of attention at the latest since Jürgen Klinsmann was hired as the successor to the dismissed Ante Covic.

With the entry of investor Lars Windhorst and the associated additional millions, the old lady is slowly becoming a "big player" in the league. Hertha BSC is now inspecting the market so that there is not only a prominent name on the coaching bench, but also one or the other superstar can soon be seen on the grass.

Mario Götze: Hertha BSC soon Bayern competitor? Klinsmann keen on World Cup hero from BVB

As Sport Bild now reports, they came across World Cup hero Mario Götze . It hardly plays a role at Borussia Dortmund because there is no place in Lucien Favre's system - and his contract with BVB expires next summer!

So Götze would be free of transfer in 2020 if he did not agree on a new contract with Dortmund (which it currently does not look like). Although there is said to have been no concrete contact between Götze and Hertha yet, a commitment by the World Cup hero in the capital is quite realistic.

Götze might have to accept a drop in salary (ten million euros at BVB), but in return he should play a bigger role than in Dortmund. There, the now 27-year-old has so far not shown a total of 500 minutes of use in all competitions this season. Not enough for a player with his demands.

Mario Götze: How realistic is a transfer to Hertha BSC?

Götze , who was active at Bayern from 2013 to 2016, will probably prefer a team that plays in the Champions League , but the Hertha BSC project with Jürgen Klinsmann on the sidelines could be quite tempting. Fittingly: With Nike , both Hertha and Götze have the same supplier.

Ann-Kathrin Götze , the wife of the offensive player, will probably not stand in the way of moving to Berlin. She works successfully as a model - which is probably better in the capital than in the pot ...

FC Bayern could actually get one more championship competitor in the coming years if the Hertha BSC project really started as is currently speculated. While Hertha is speculating about Götze, FCB is still dealing with Leroy Sané.

Ralph Hasenhüttl, former RB Leipzig coach, is now in the Premier League at Southampton FC. The club has demonstrated incredible irony and kidnapped itself with a video.

Jürgen Klinsmann has big plans with Hertha and writes his own story: Although he was fired as a coach at Bayern, he sees many fruits of his work at FCB.
