Many clubs are suffering financially from the crown crisis, but rumors are still simmering. Here we keep you informed about what is happening in the transfer market.
Timm Klose moves to FC Basel
Timm Klose returns home. The 32-year-old from Basel will move from Norwich City to FC Basel 1893 on a loan until summer 2021. FCB has the option of permanently taking over the central defender.
In 2007, Timm Klose, then 19 years old, moved from BSC Old Boys to FCB U21 team. Two years later he made the leap to the Super League at FC Thun. In 2011, Klose moved to the German Bundesliga with 1. FC Nürnberg; that same year he made his debut with the Swiss national team, for which he played a total of 17 times.
After two years with Nuremberg, he first moved to VfL Wolfsburg within the Bundesliga and finally, in January 2016, to England to Norwich City. With Norwich he was initially relegated to the second highest English division, but in the summer of 2019 he celebrated his return to the Premier League with his team. At the end of the 2019/2020 season, in which Norwich City could not avoid relegation from the top flight, Basler played a total of 128 games for the English and scored ten goals.
“I am very happy that the moment has come and that I will soon be able to meet the Joggeli. Now I no longer have to sit in front of the TV with the FCB shirt and cheer on … I am proud to be able to wear the colors of my heart club and play in the city where my family and friends are at home. From now on I will give everything to bring my strength and my emotions for FCB to the field, “said Klose.

Varol Tasar will move from Servette to Lucerna with immediate effect within the Super League. The central Swiss are releasing the 24-year-old until the end of the season. The forward, who grew up in Waldshut, Germany, near the Swiss border, will subsequently receive a contract until the summer of 2024.
After three years and a strong 2018/19 season (13 goals), the forward moved from Aarau to the Super League to Servette a year ago, in which he scored another 8 goals in 31 games.

Good news for ManUtd fans: With Edinson Cavani and Alex Telles, two boosters have been fixed. Cavani will receive a two-year contract. Cavani’s half-brother and agent told the online portal “Inside Futbol”: The 33-year-old Uruguayan scored 200 goals in 301 competitive games with PSG.
ManUtd also transfers shipping costs for left-back Alex Telles around 15 million euros.
Bayern sign Choupo-Moting and Douglas Costa
As FC Bayern announced on Monday afternoon, Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting will join the German record champion effective immediately. The 31-year-old receives a contract in Munich until 2021. The veteran, who shot eventual finalist Paris Saint-Germain in the semi-finals of the Champions League final, is slated to replace Torgarant Robert Lewandowski.
Also in the Bayern shirt in the future: Douglas Costa returns. The 30-year-old attacker is on loan from Juventus Turin. His contract also runs through the summer of 2021.
Tuchel does not extend in the PSG
Thomas Tuchel’s future at Paris Saint-Germain following the end of his contract in the summer of 2021 remains fierce speculation. The French sports daily “L’Équipe” wrote this Sunday that the 47-year-old German did not want to extend his contract and leave the club. The reason is the power struggle with sports director Leonardo. The 51-year-old Brazilian recently responded to Tuchel’s request for reinforcements for the finalists of the Champions League last season.
However, according to the report “L’Équipe”, things could turn out differently. Such background noises shouldn’t be to the taste of the wealthy PSG Qatari owners. “If it continues like this, they will separate from one of the two,” said an unidentified confidant. Supposedly, club bosses shouldn’t be happy with Leonardo’s purchasing policy either.
Following the Champions League final defeat by Bayern Munich, Tuchel warned that the team needed to be strengthened. The former Bundesliga coach of Dortmund and Mainz recently renewed this requirement. Among other things, Leonardo had losses of around 100 million euros for PSG due to the Corona crisis. He also said: “To stay in this club you have to be satisfied with the desire to suffer for the club, to sacrifice, even if we are going through a difficult time.” Tuchel has been coaching the team with Brazilian superstar Neymar and French world champion Kylian Mbappé since July 2018.

Chelsea rejects Bayern offer for Hudson-Odoi
According to British media, Chelsea FC have rejected an offer from FC Bayern to sign national player Callum Hudson-Odoi. The German record champions have proposed a loan agreement to Londoners, which should include a purchase option of around 77 million euros for next season, several media reported unanimously. Consequently, the Munich team is expected to submit another offer for the 19-year-old offensive player before the transfer deadline ends on Monday.
Bayern were already very interested in signing Hudson-Odoi in winter 2019, but had not reached an agreement with Chelsea at the time. Basically, I don’t know what’s going on. But he’s one of the greatest talents in this position, ”coach Hansi Flick said on Saturday. “That is why it is legitimate that we, like Bayern Munich, also deal with him.”
Chelsea manager Frank Lampard then said after the 4-0 league win at Crystal Palace, in which Hudson-Odoi was in the starting lineup, that he couldn’t predict what would happen until Monday. But he keeps planning with the teenager and wants to keep him in London. However, the wishes of Hudson-Odoi, who is mostly threatened with a spot on the bench this season, will also be taken into account.
