Werder Bremen weigh move for Angers midfielder Yassin Belkhdim as €5m price set
Yassin Belkhdim is attracting interest from four European clubs, with Werder Bremen considering an offer for the Angers midfielder.
The 24-year-old is being monitored by Rayo Vallecano, Burnley and Anderlecht, according to Foot Mercato. Werder Bremen have also moved to explore a possible deal and are considering submitting a bid to Angers.
However, the German club must first create space in its squad before it can make an offer for Belkhdim.
Angers are open to the possibility of allowing the player to leave, but they are understood to want €5m for the Franco-Moroccan midfielder. Belkhdim remains under contract with the Ligue 1 club until 2028.
The midfielder has established himself as an important member of the Angers side over the past two seasons. He has made 56 Ligue 1 appearances during that period, underlining his growing role within the team.
His energy in midfield and technical ability have helped attract attention from clubs in several European leagues. Rayo Vallecano, Burnley and Anderlecht are all following his situation, while Werder Bremen are the only club among the interested parties reported to have taken steps towards a potential formal offer.
For now, any move remains dependent on Werder Bremen’s ability to open a place in their squad. Should that happen, the club could proceed with an approach to Angers, who have placed a €5m valuation on their player.
Angers’ willingness to consider a departure means Belkhdim’s future could become a subject of interest during the current transfer discussions. His contract provides the French club with protection until 2028, but the reported asking price gives potential suitors a clear indication of the terms required to sign him.
Belkhdim’s recent involvement in Ligue 1 has been central to the interest in his services. Across the past two campaigns, he has played 56 matches in France’s top flight, combining a high level of activity with the technical qualities that have made him a notable player for Angers.
The situation leaves four clubs watching closely, with Werder Bremen currently assessing whether it can create the squad capacity needed to turn its interest into an offer. Rayo Vallecano, Burnley and Anderlecht remain linked with the player, while Angers wait to see whether any club will meet their €5m valuation.
