Liverpool and Manchester City join race for Kennet Eichhorn
The transfer race for Hertha's Kennet Eichhorn intensifies as Liverpool and Manchester City join Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund in pursuit of the youngster.
The list of clubs tracking 16-year-old Hertha BSC midfielder Kennet Eichhorn continues to grow. Beyond the persistent interest from Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund, and Bayer Leverkusen, English giants are now making serious moves.
Reports suggest that Liverpool is already in concrete talks with the player's camp. Meanwhile, Manchester City has also approached the situation, with plans to potentially loan the midfielder immediately to a club like Bayer Leverkusen should they secure his signature.
Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl confirmed their interest in the Germany Under-21 international. Eichhorn broke into the first team in August 2025 and, despite a two-and-a-half-month ankle injury earlier this year, has established himself as a regular feature in Berlin.

With a release clause reportedly set between €10m and €12m, the young midfielder is currently one of the most sought-after prospects in European football.
