Mats Hummels is considering a move to the Premier League after leaving Borussia Dortmund as a free agent. The World Cup-winning defender had a significant fallout with former boss Edin Terzic, leading to his departure.
Brighton is reportedly interested in signing the 35-year-old, with new coach Fabian Hurzeler already discussing the club’s sporting project with Hummels. Hummels is evaluating whether to join Brighton or retire from football. Hurzeler, 31, who favored a 3-4-3 formation at St. Pauli, envisions Hummels playing centrally in a back three. Despite reaching the Champions League final with Dortmund, Hummels left under contentious circumstances after criticizing Terzic’s tactics.
The situation escalated to a heated confrontation before they reconciled ahead of the final, which Dortmund lost to Real Madrid. Brighton’s interest in Hummels reflects their ambition under Hurzeler, who seeks to bolster the defense with experienced talent.
