According to a 'Bild' report, Borussia Mönchengladbach is targeting 22-year-old German goalkeeper Tjark Ernst and his Hertha BSC teammate Linus Gechter for a transfer in the upcoming summer. The report also suggests that VfL would need to pay over ten million euros for the pair. Both players are under contract at Hertha until 2027 and want to achieve promotion, but it is thought they would be difficult to retain if that goal is not met this season. It is not certain that Ernst wants to leave the club. A few weeks ago, he received interest from Ajax Amsterdam, while Gechter has received interest from Serie A. Ernst, who joined Hertha in July 2022, has made 17 appearances in the 2. Bundesliga this season and has two caps for Germany's U21 team. His current market value on Transfermarkt is €4.00m.
