The proposed deal is a one-year loan from Slavia Prague with an included option to buy. Hashioka joined Slavia Prague in July 2025, and his contract there runs until 2029. He has 12 caps for Japan and previously played for Luton Town in the Premier League. Hashioka is expected to sign his contract after a successful medical and join the team's training camp in Rottach-Egern by Sunday. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €1.50m.
