Hupu, August 19, updated by several reporters from German media photo newspaper, Bremen is stepping up his search for a replacement for Michael Zetler (30 years old), who is about to transfer to Frankfurt.

Alexander Schvorov (33 years old) has become increasingly important to Werder Bremen recently. The veteran previously played for United Berlin and served as a substitute goalkeeper, and was originally planned to serve as the No. 2 goalkeeper for talented goalkeeper Mio Buckhouse (21 years old).

However, at present, the team is more inclined to the goalkeeper: Carl Hein (23 years old) from Premier League club Arsenal.

Werder Bremen's management not only considers him a good goalkeeper who can replace the No. 1 goalkeeper when Buckhouse is in poor form, but another important reason also plays an important role.

The Estonian international is not well paid. His total salary (excluding bonuses) is not expected to exceed €1 million. This makes him very suitable for Werder Bremen.

In fact, third-party agents recommended Hein to Bremen, and in addition, Werder Bremen's management has a good relationship with Arsenal. Former star Pel Mertsacker (40) has played for the Gunners for many years and is currently the director of the London club's youth training.

Werder Bremen hopes to complete the deal as soon as possible. But this can only be achieved after news of Zetler's transfer to Frankfurt is officially announced, and this should be completed by Wednesday at the latest.

Bremen hopes that the signing will enhance Buckhouse's insight from the beginning.
