Ilyas Ansah Transfer from Paderborn to FC Union Berlin

Ilyas Ansah is transferring from SC Paderborn to Union Berlin. He is a 20-year-old versatile forward who can play in the center, on the wings, and in the attacking half-space. He has signed a long-term contract with Union Berlin. Union Manager Horst Heldt praised him as a young but well-developed offensive player who showed consistently good performances in the past season. Ansah is expected to bring speed, physicality, and goal threat to Union Berlin's play.

Union Berlin is nearing the completion of a deal to acquire Ilyas Ansah. 'Sky' reported that an agreement has been finalized with SC Paderborn. The transfer involves a base fee of four million euros, which will be paid by the capital's club to the second division team, and will include additional bonuses. Ansah is scheduled to undergo a medical examination at the start of next week. Following this, the 20-year-old forward is anticipated to sign a long-term contract with Union Berlin. Throughout the season, Ansah has been a key player under the management of Lukas Kwasniok, playing as a left winger, center forward, and in the attacking midfield, where he has scored six goals and provided six assists.

Union Berlin is reportedly interested in acquiring Ilyas Ansah, who has demonstrated significant versatility in offensive roles this season. The club is looking to capitalize on his skills for the upcoming season. Currently a player for SC Paderborn, the 20-year-old has participated in 30 games and has been involved in nine goals. Despite not being a regular in the starting lineup, his adaptability has caught the attention of several clubs. Union Berlin is said to have joined the competition to sign Ansah, facing rivals such as Eintracht Frankfurt and some unnamed Premier League clubs. Although Frankfurt is considered to be in a strong position, they have not yet formalized their interest, which leaves an opportunity for Union Berlin to potentially complete the transfer. The transfer fee for Ansah is estimated to be between three to six million euros, with a move expected to happen this summer.
