According to Sky Germany's Dennis Bayer, several Bundesliga clubs are showing interest in Matej Maglica from SV Darmstadt 98.
The towering central defender is one of the top tacklers in the second division and has already scored seven goals this season.
However, the unnamed clubs in the German topflight are not alone in their pursuit – Dinamo Zagreb of Croatia are also linked with him.
Despite being under contract until 2027, the Hessen club are already considering an extension, but talks haven't started yet.
The 27-year-old, born in the eastern Croatian city of Slavonski Brod, could be tempted by a return to his home country.
Regardless, Maglica could be enticed back to the Bundesliga having played 26 games in the division with Darmstadt during the 2023-24 season.
