The January transfer window is a remedy for teams looking to improve the status quo in the second half of the season, but it's also too much of a necessary transfer premium due to time constraints. But along with that, it's a bigger market for players in the last 6 months of their contract. The most attractive free agent in the Bundesliga this season is undoubtedly Hoffenheim midfielder Grylic, whose contract entered the final six months in January. Grilig is a midfielder who can be both an offensive finisher and a BtoB midfielder, as well as as a lagging organizational nucleus.
After passing through the Werder Bremen Youth Academy, Grylic was promoted to the first team in 2015 and after two full seasons in Bremen, the midfielder joined Hoffenheim on a free transfer. Since then, Grylic has made more than 140 appearances for Hoffenheim and established himself as a talented bundesliga midfielder, making outstanding contributions on both ends of the midfield offensive and defensive ends. During this time, the midfielder has also become a regular for the Austrian national team, having played more than 30 games for the national team since his debut in 2017.
So far, Gryrich seems to have attracted the interest of some big clubs because of his performances in the Bundesliga for Hoffenheim. According to an earlier report, both Napoli and Milan wanted to bring in the midfielder, but the player's agent only confirmed the latter's connection. But nothing happened until the windows were closed in the summer. In recent months, Grylic has instead attracted the interest of Milan's city rivals, with Inter reportedly designating the Austrian as the ideal replacement for Brozovic. Of course, the player's contract status has led to a lot of reports about his future, and Grylic himself admitted earlier that he was ready to move towards a bigger club. "I don't necessarily have to leave Huo Village, my contract is until 2022. But I can imagine the next step in my career. I'm ready. In late November last year, the midfielder was rumored to be moving to Newcastle and Roma, and it was reported that the two clubs were chasing Grilic in a position comparable.
