Union Berlin showed interest in Akor Adams, a 24-year-old striker from Ligue 1. According to Sky, there was concrete contact between Union Berlin and Adams, and Adams indicated that he could imagine a move to the Berlin club. However, the transfer did not materialize as FC Sevilla secured the deal, with Adams set to travel to Andalusia for a medical check. The transfer fee of 5.5 million euros was beyond what Union Berlin could afford, as reported by Sky.
