Substantive discussions are taking place between TSG Hoffenheim and Patrick Wimmer, who is a 25-year-old Austrian winger. Optimism regarding a potential deal has been reported in Kraichgau. Other clubs are also interested in signing the offensive player. A report from 'Bild' states that Eintracht Frankfurt and Brighton & Hove Albion are making efforts to sign him. Although previous rumors had linked Borussia Dortmund to the player, this interest did not become substantive. Following VfL Wolfsburg's relegation, Patrick Wimmer can leave for a fixed fee of ten million euros. The club's attempts to convince the Austrian World Cup player to spend a season in the second division were unsuccessful. Patrick Wimmer has 30 caps and one goal for Austria. He joined Wolfsburg from Arminia Bielefeld in July 2022 for a €5.0M fee. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €12.00m. It was reported in January 2026 that Wolfsburg's asking price was at least €15 million. A report from June 2025 mentioned that the club demanded at least €20 million.
