Union Berlin Striker Ilyas Ansah Poised for Premier League Move
Union Berlin is on the brink of completing a lucrative transfer, with reports indicating that striker Ilyas Ansah is set to join Hull City in the Premier League before the transfer window closes. According to both ‘bz’ and Sky expert Florian Plettenberg, the promoted side is willing to pay €22 million for Ansah, a figure that could increase to €24 million with bonuses.
The 24-year-old is expected to finalize a contract with Hull City until 2031 following the completion of his medical examination. Reports from ‘bz’ suggest that Ansah has already bid farewell to his teammates.
Last season, Ansah had a notable campaign, netting five goals in 36 appearances across all competitions. Should this transfer be finalized, it would mark a significant milestone as the highest transfer fee received by Union Berlin for a player, surpassing the previous record held by Taiwo Awoniyi. Awoniyi transferred to Nottingham Forest in 2023 for €20.50 million.
Before the transfer window closes in a few days, Union Berlin could be in line to make some serious money once again. As both ‘bz’ and Sky expert Florian Plettenberg report, Ilyas Ansah is on the verge of a move to the Premier League.
Promoted side Hull City are said to be willing to pay €22 million for the striker. Including bonuses, the fee could even rise to €24 million, according to Plettenberg.
He is expected to sign a contract with the Premier League club until 2031 once he has completed his medical. According to ‘bz’, Ansah already said goodbye to his teammates yesterday.
