Could Fortuna Düsseldorf be on the brink of a sensational signing?

Fortuna Düsseldorf: A Fresh Start Amid Departures

The Rhine-landers are facing major changes following numerous key player departures. Sporting director Christian Weber and board chairman Klaus Allofs are on a mission to fill the voids left behind and assemble a competitive squad for the upcoming season.

Recently, Weber revealed to Kicker: "Since we've released nine players so far, we'll probably bring in the same number of new faces. We've got some awesome ideas cooking."

The Ex-Fortuna Midfielder Comes Back to Town?

One intriguing idea floating around is the possible return of Florian Neuhaus. The 28-year-old midfielder, who once donned the Fortuna jersey as a loan player from 2017 to 2018, is reportedly on Fortuna's radar. However, financial constraints may limit a potential deal to a loan agreement, according to recent rumors. Neuhaus, who has a market value of approximately 38 million euros, is currently under contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach and earns around four million euros brutto per year.

The talented midfielder is known for his precise passes, creativity, and goal-scoring abilities. While he sometimes struggles in physical duels and against the ball, he is a valuable asset for any team looking for a smart and versatile midfielder.

Swiss Forward Cedric Itten, a Feasible Option?

Rumors are swirling about Cedric Itten potentially landing at Fortuna to help fill the gap left by Dzenan Pejcinovic and a possible departure of Kownacki. Sources suggest that the 28-year-old striker has several offers on the table, including one from Fortuna, which is particularly attractive to him.

With eight goals and two assists in 34 appearances in the Super League and seven appearances in the Champions League during the previous season, Itten is a robust, tall, and strong striker who excels at holding onto the ball under pressure and making an impact in the penalty area. His finishing skills make him a constant threat in the opposition's goal.

Defensive Reinforcements Needed

Fortuna is also on the lookout for a reinforcement in central defense, following the departure of captain Andre Hoffmann. According to reports, the Rhine-landers have their eye on Leonard Wurm from relegated 2. Bundesliga side SSV Jahn Regensburg. The 19-year-old defender has established himself as a regular starter and boasts a market value of 1.5 million euros. Whether Fortuna is willing to invest in the young talent remains to be seen.

So far, Düsseldorf has secured the services of Kenneth Schmidt (SC Freiburg), Julian Hettwer (Borussia Dortmund II), and Christopher Lenz (TSG Hoffenheim). Whether any of the mentioned players will join this list is yet to be determined.
