Predictably, the most talked-about striker in this summer's transfer market is Haaland from the Bundesliga. Although he and Dortmund still have a penalty clause of 75 million euros, compared to the player's own value of 150 million euros, this is already a cabbage price, and there are already manchester City, Barca, Chelsea, Real Madrid, Paris and other giants who want to participate in the summer competition. But no matter how fierce the competition, only one team can get Haaland in the end, so who should the remaining teams that need forwards choose? Czech striker Sikh, who also plays in the Bundesliga, is a good candidate.
The striker's debut began in the domestic league, debuting in Sparta Prague in 2014, then on loan to fellow city side Bohemians in the 2015-2016 season, and moving to Sampdoria in Serie A in 2016 for €4 million. In his first season in Serie A, the Czech striker performed very well, successfully attracting the attention of The Ban ba Juve at the time. But what is more dramatic is that just when all the details of the contract were negotiated and only the final physical examination was completed, the problem appeared, and he was returned because of the unqualified medical examination.
In the end, It was Roma who chose to take over, renting first and then buying, spending more than 42 million euros to win Hick. But in his two seasons with Roma, the player's form plummeted, scoring just five goals. With playing time gradually decreasing, in the summer of 2019 Sigg was loaned to Red Bull Leipzig in the Bundesliga. At that time, when the new army was in a desperate position in the league, Hick also quickly returned to the state of the first time it landed in Serie A. Although there was a break early in the season due to an ankle injury, the efficiency of goals after returning from injury was quite good. He made 22 appearances in the league and scored 10 goals, making him the no. 2 top scorer in Leipzig.
In this state, Leipzig, which has a preferential buyout clause, should buy the player completely. But in the eyes of the management, the price of 29 million euros is too high for them to pay such a high cost. Turnaround spent 20 million euros to win the center player Sorlot from Norway. Although Leipzig voluntarily abandoned Hick, with his highlights in the Bundesliga, he soon got an olive branch from another Bundesliga powerhouse, Bayer Leverkusen. After selling Flanders and Havertz last summer, the pharmaceutical company, which has a transfer income of one hundred million, urgently needs to find a replacement for these two main players, and they have their sights on Hick in the frontcourt position.
The Czech striker was quickly taken down for a fixed transfer fee of €26.5 million, plus a €2.5 million add-on. After joining the team, the players rested for a while due to injury, but still scored nine goals for the team. Although there were fears that Sigg would fall into a downturn again, he quickly proved his strength through a highlight performance in the European Championship. In particular, his ultra-long shot of more than 45 meters directly created the longest distance in the history of the event and was one of the best goals. This season, the players continued his good form in the cup. So far, he has scored 17 goals in 15 league appearances for the pharmaceutical company.
Although he is lower than Levan in the leaderboards, he has to be better at both the time it takes to score each goal and the chance conversion rate, let alone Haaland. Although the value and potential are not as good as the Norwegian striker, the 26-year-old is the golden age of the striker, and the value is only 40 million euros, which is more cost-effective in terms of cost performance. The player himself is very grateful, and when asked if he has plans to leave the pharmaceutical factory, he made it clear that he likes his current life and does not want to add more trouble to the club because of personal problems, nor does he consider going to another club. However, it is difficult to say whether the pharmaceutical company will choose to sell him, after all, even the former midfielder hopes that Havertz will sell them, as long as the price is right, selling Hick is not too much of a problem.
