On September 29th, we covered claims from Germany that Maximilian Beier has caught the attention of Everton and they are ready to battle it out with Brentford to sign the TSG Hoffenheim star.
For the past two years, the striker was on loan at Hannover 96 and since returning to the Bundesliga side, he’s impressed for them, managing six goals and an assist from eight league games.
This has not gone unnoticed as Bild state Everton and Brentford are in the picture for the 21-year-old.
The report says the Germany U21 international has a release clause in his current deal that expires in 2025 but the details of the clause aren’t mentioned.
Bild say the player and his agent, Maik Barthel, had a meeting with Hoffenheim managing director Alexander Rosen on Tuesday. They add the latter achieved a ‘real coup’ by agreeing with the star to renew his deal until 2027.
The Premier League sides hovering over Beier has seen Rosen act quickly to extend his contract, also because the current release clause makes it interesting for the likes of the Toffees and the Bees.
Bild reporter Christian Falk took to X, formerly Twitter, to add that Brentford and Everton have shown ‘concrete interest’ in Beier. The renewal would make it difficult for the Premier League sides to take him away from Hoffenheim.
True✅ despite the concrete interest of Brentford and Everton, Maximilian Beier (21) signed a new contract at @tsghoffenheim til 2027, including a release clause. With 6 goals the striker is in the Top5 of Bundesliga. Also Liverpool scouted Beier @BILD_Sport
