It certainly stands to reason that many other top-tier Bundesliga sides may be interested in procuring Osterhage's services over the coming winter transfer window. Bochum's "Tief im Westen" fan-magazine claims that, among several unnamed others, SC Freiburg may be interested in plucking the Germany U21 international from the Revierklub.
Freiburg are known to be seeking an economical solution to the often-mistake-prone midfield duo of Nicolas Höfler and Maximilian Eggestein. With an estimated market worth of €4 million in the latest transfermarkt update, however, Osterhage may still constitute too expensive an option in the January window. The player remains under contract with his current club through 2026.
