While there has been no official bid as yet, the club may act swiftly if they decide to pursue the deal before the transfer window slams shut. While Freiburg and Bremen continue talks, no breakthrough has been reported. Newcastle reportedly may still have an interest, but currently the focus is on getting this deal across the line. Across the season 25/26, Freiburg have let in 56 goals in 33 (1.7 per game), roughly in line with the Bundesliga average. Mio Backhaus would be expected to give them some extra stability and depth for the tougher stretches of the season.
