Itten Targets Free-Transfer Striker for Werder Bremen

Werder Bremen recorded 37 goals in the last Bundesliga season, the second‑lowest tally among all clubs. Itten announced that the club will target new centre forwards, including a free agent from relegated Fortuna Düsseldorf. The low tally contributed to Werder Bremen finishing near the bottom of the league table. The club intends to raise its scoring rate for the upcoming campaign. Itten is leading the search for a striker to replace the missing firepower. The identified Fortuna Düsseldorf forward is available without a transfer fee following his club’s relegation. Werder Bremen have been linked with several centre‑forwards in recent weeks. The recruitment drive aims to add depth and competition to the attacking line‑up. Strengthening the front line is a priority as the team prepares for the new season. The free‑transfer target could join the squad before the summer window closes.
