Bochum’s Moritz Broschinski set for €2.5m transfer to FC Basel | OneFootball

Bochum forward Moritz Broschinski (24) is set to undergo a medical with Swiss club FC Basel on Tuesday after both clubs reached an agreement for a €2.5m transfer, including bonuses, according to Sky Germany.

It brings an end to Broschinski’s three years at Bochum where he scored six goals and provided seven assists in 76 appearances across all competitions. The 24-year-old is already off the mark this season after scoring in VfL’s opening day defeat against Darmstadt (4-1).

At Basel, Broschinski has the opportunity to feature in the Champions League this season should the Swiss side prove victorious in their playoff at the end of August, which will be against either Malmö or Copenhagen.

Upheaval in Bochum following their relegation

Broschinski will become the latest player to leave Bochum following their relegation from the Bundesliga after Tim Oermann (Bayer Leverkusen, €1.9m), Lukas Daschner (St. Gallen, €650k), Dani de Wit (Utrecht, €400k), Patrick Drewes (€200k, Borussia Dortmund) and Bernardo (Hoffenheim, free) all left the club. However, Broschinski will be their biggest departure so far this summer.
