Union Berlin is considering the acquisition of Fisnik Asllani from TSG Hoffenheim. However, Asllani is presently on loan to SV Elversberg in the 2. Bundesliga, where he has impressed with 10 goals and 5 assists in 18 matches. Elversberg reportedly has no desire to release him during the winter, which complicates the transfer. It is noted that TSG Hoffenheim lacks a contractual option to recall him early, implying they would need to provide Elversberg with compensation to end the loan, and Union Berlin would be required to pay additional fees to finalize the transfer.
