Fritz confirms that Njinmah will return to Bremen
Speaking to SV Werder Bremen's "Deichstube" fan site, SV player licensing director Clemens Fritz has confirmed that striker Justin Njinmah will be part of the club's professional squad next season.
While outgoing transfer rumors have continued to swirl around their two main strikers, Niclas Füllkrug and Marvin Ducksch, SV Werder Bremen have at least secured some attacking assistance for next season in the form of returning loanee Justin Njinmah. Club licensing head Clemens Fritz confirmed that the 22-year-old will be returning to the Hanseatic City State when pressed for comment by the local "Deichstube" website.
Fritz actually noted that Dortmund's purchase option on the youngster was actually much higher than previously rumored. A €3 million price tag was evidently too much for die Schwarzgelben, even for a player who has amassed 18 scorer points this year for BVB II in the 3. Bundesliga. Njinmah's estimated market worth has increased ten-fold since he was loaned out to the Dortmund reserves last summer.
He's now valued at €700,000 in the latest transfermarkt listings.
