Italian forward Mohamed Alì Zoma confirmed that there was interest in him from the Bundesliga during the summer. He named both Werder Bremen and FC Augsburg, and described the attention as special. However, his club, 1. FC Nürnberg, demanded a transfer fee of 20 million euros, which no potential suitor was prepared to pay. The 22-year-old, who has yet to be capped by Italy, joined Nürnberg in August 2025 and is under contract until 2029. Reports in August and September 2026 indicated that Nürnberg rejected bids of approximately €20 million from Hull City, West Ham United, and Olympique Marseille. His current Transfermarkt market value is €8.00m.
