Havant and Waterlooville Overview

Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl has confirmed that the Bavarian giants are keeping a very close eye on Hertha Berlin starlet Kennet Eichhorn. The 16-year-old sensation has become one of the most sought-after teenagers in European football following a breakout season in the capital.

Borussia Dortmund have stepped up their pursuit of Real Madrid starlet Gonzalo Garcia as they look to bolster their attacking options for next season. However, a significant gap in valuation remains, with the Spanish giants demanding a fee that currently sits well outside the Bundesliga outfit's financial reach.

Borussia Dortmund sporting director Ole Book has shifted the club’s transfer strategy, cooling interest in a permanent move for Jadon Sancho to prioritise a creative playmaker. The German side are eyeing 19-year-old Arsenal starlet Ethan Nwaneri – currently on loan at Marseille – as the ideal successor to Julian Brandt, though a high valuation remains a significant hurdle.

Borussia Dortmund head coach Niko Kovac has sparked controversy by admitting he does not believe his side can compete with Bayern Munich for the Bundesliga title next season. The former Bayern boss cited the financial disparity and star power at the Allianz Arena as reasons for his pessimistic outlook for the 2026-27 campaign.
