TSG Hoffenheim have increased their offer to secure Adam Daghim from RB Salzburg, submitting a bid exceeding €10 million for the Danish international. Negotiations between the Bundesliga clubs are ongoing, though an agreement with the player on a long-term contract is already in place.
Personal terms secured
According to Sky Sports, the 20-year-old has agreed to a deal running until 2031. This significant commitment suggests Hoffenheim view the versatile attacker as a cornerstone of their future plans. Daghim, who has earned two caps for Denmark, spent last season on loan at VfL Wolfsburg, where he made 30 appearances across all competitions.
The proposed transfer would see Daghim swap the Austrian Bundesliga for the German top flight on a permanent basis. His experience during the loan spell with Wolfsburg means he already possesses familiarity with the demands of German football, potentially easing his transition into Hoffenheim’s squad.
Salzburg’s season underway
The Austrian champions are currently navigating the early stages of their campaign, having opened their competitive season with a dominant 7-1 victory over third-tier Oberwart in the ÖFB-Cup first round on Saturday. Daghim featured as a substitute during that match, indicating he remains part of the squad until any transfer is finalised.
Alternative targets diverge
Hoffenheim’s pursuit of Daghim has effectively ended their interest in Feyenoord’s Leo Sauer. The Slovak international is now on the verge of completing a move to VfB Stuttgart instead. This clarification of targets suggests Hoffenheim are prioritising the Danish youngster’s specific profile as they look to strengthen their attacking options.
With personal terms agreed and an improved offer exceeding €10 million now submitted, the coming days will likely determine whether Salzburg are willing to part with the young forward before the transfer window closes.
