Vitalie Becker's agency, PN Sports Consulting, confirmed that there is significant interest in the 20-year-old left-back from the Russian Premier League. The agency stated that a move is possible due to his Russian heritage and language skills, adding that many agents from Russia have called to express this interest. In addition to FK Krasnodar, other Russian clubs such as Spartak Moscow, Zenit St. Petersburg, and ZSKA Moskau also have an interest in the German U20 international. There is also interest from Germany, as 1. FC Köln has shown its interest in the Schalke player. Becker is under contract in Gelsenkirchen until 2027, and the club plans to hold negotiations for a new contract in the coming spring, partly to increase any potential transfer fee. The German youth international, who has 4 caps for the U20 team, has a current Transfermarkt market value of €3.00m and has contributed 2 goals and 1 assist in 16 appearances in the 2. Bundesliga this season.
