Stefan Posch potentially heading back to TSG Hoffenheim
The versatile defender ended up racking up 109 German top-flight appearances during seven seasons spent in Sinsheim. He played as a central defender, defensive midfielder, and right back whilst donning a TSG trikot.
Posch made his last appearance for Hoffenheim on the opening day of the 2022/23 season. In something of an ignominious exit, he would be sent off on double yellows in the August 2022 loss to Borussia Mönchengladbach.
Hoffenheim then initially loaned him out to Bologna before selling him outright to the Serie A outfit for €5m. Since moving to Italy, Posch has experienced his fair share of ups and downs.
The 42-times-capped ÖFB international's estimated market value dipped down to €7m in November of 2022. Posch managed to pump it back up to his career high of €14m seven months later.
At present, Posch is valued at €10m after failing out of the starting XI of Bologna head-coach Vincenzo Italiano. The Hoffenheim youth academy product has started just seven of 22 league fixtures thus far this year.

Luis Diaz's medical details before signing with Bayern Munich
New Colombian in the Bundesliga. Luis Diaz's medical details before signing with Bayern Munich The long-anticipated transfer of Luis Diaz to Bayern Munich reaches its final stages, with the Colombian winger scheduled for medical tests in Germany on Monday. Liverpool's hierarchy reluctantly agreed to the £65.4 million deal after Bayern's persistent pursuit finally met their valuation. Diaz's departure comes after months of frustration over stalled contract negotiations, with the 28-year-old feeling undervalued at Anfield. His absence during Liverpool's 4-2 pre-season defeat to AC Milan in Asia spoke volumes, with new manager Arne Slot acknowledging the uncertainty surrounding the player's future while praising his professionalism in training. Bayern's initial £58.5 million approach last week fell short, but Vincent Kompany's determination to land his target proved decisive. The improved weekend offer triggered Liverpool's acceptance, paving the way for Diaz to end his three-year Merseyside stint. Slot remained coy when pressed about potential exits, deflecting questions linking Darwin Nunez's similar absence to transfer speculation.

Bayern preparing improved Diaz bid of more than £60m
Bayern Munich are planning an improved offer for Liverpool forward Luis Diaz. The Bundesliga side had an initial £58.6m bid for the Colombia international turned down by the Premier League champions earlier this month. But Bayern are determined to land Diaz and sources are indicating that the German title holders are hoping an agreement can be reached. The offer - inclusive of add-ons - will likely be more than £60m. Diaz was left out of Liverpool's squad for Saturday's 4-2 pre-season friendly defeat by AC Milan in Hong Kong because of speculation surrounding his departure from the club. "There are a lot of rumours around him lately and I cannot go into that," said Liverpool manager Arne Slot. "He's training really well with us but we've decided for now not to play him yet." Liverpool have signed forwards Florian Wirtz and Hugo Ekitike already this summer and are interested in Newcastle United's Alexander Isak. Diaz arrived at Anfield from Porto in a deal worth an initial £37m in January 2022 and he was an integral part of the squad that won the 2024-25 Premier League title.
