VfL Wolfsburg is negotiating for the transfer of central midfielder Patrik Mercado. They have made an initial offer to Independiente del Valle. Mercado, who has spent his entire career at his home club, is keen to move to Europe. Although there is currently a disagreement on the transfer fee, an agreement is still possible. Mercado could potentially replace Aster Vranckx, who was recently loaned to US Sassuolo.
