Kicker reports that Niclas Füllkrug has turned down a contract extension offer from Werder Bremen.

According to Sport Bild, Werder offered Füllkrug a contract until 2026, which would have seen the striker earn €3 million per year.

So far, the striker has been earning €2.5 million a year, including bonuses. However, as of July 1, the sum has reportedly been contractually reduced by 15 percent.

Füllkrug, whose current contract expires in 2025, has been linked with a move away from the club, with Italian sides believed to be among his suitors.

He has also recently been touted as a possible replacement for the long-term injured Patrik Schick at Bayer Leverkusen.
