The management of the "mattress makers" is looking for a replacement for Alvaro Morata, who recently joined AC Milan. The 31-year-old forward is afraid that he may lose his place in the Bumblebees' main squad after the arrival of Sero Girassi and wants to leave the Signal Iduna Park.

Last season, Niklas played 29 matches in the German league, scoring 12 goals and making eight assists.
