Hannover 96 has decided to sign the 20-year-old after he scored three goals and six assists in 30 league appearances in the 2022/23 season. The defensive midfielder will return to Bayern. The loan agreement between Bayern and Hannover 96 included a buyout clause of one million euros, which the Niedersachsen have exercised. The recall option of 2.5 million euros, which the FCB has exercised, will now come into effect. Noel Aseko will have the chance to prove himself in the preseason squad of Vincent Kompany. With the departure of Leon Goretzka, a place in the central midfield is available at the record champion. Aseko is one of the candidates who could fill this position. Integrating the 20-year-old into the first team early on would fit the club's plan to focus more on its own talents in the future. If the responsible persons come to the conclusion that Aseko is not yet ready to play an important role at FCB, there are several options: Another loan, but also a fixed sale are conceivable. Hannover is likely to be interested in loaning the 20-year-old again after a strong season. But Aseko could also become a transfer target for Bundesliga clubs. He has recently been linked to Eintracht Frankfurt.
