Hoffenheim's Muhammed Damar to transfer to Wolfsburg for €7m

Muhammed Damar is nearing a transfer from Hoffenheim to Wolfsburg for €7 million, according to Kicker. The 22-year-old forward, originally from Berlin, seeks a return to the 2. Bundesliga after struggling for playing time in the Bundesliga last season. Damar’s market value fell from €7 million to €5 million due to limited appearances with Hoffenheim, where he started just twice in 15 league matches. His loan spells at Hannover 96 and Elversberg in the 2. Bundesliga were more productive, prompting his desire to move back. Damar is expected to sign a five-year contract with Wolfsburg, who will officially finalize the transfer soon.
