Roma want the defensive midfielder ahead of next season and see him as a strong fit for their midfield. Aston Villa and Brighton & Hove Albion are also monitoring the situation, though neither English club has yet made a formal approach. Several unnamed Bundesliga clubs are also tracking his progress, with Eintracht Frankfurt having been the first to emerge publicly as a suitor earlier this month.
Aséko joined Hannover on an 18-month loan in January 2025, with the second-division club holding a €1 million option to buy. Bayern exercised a buyback clause to secure his return, with Leon Goretzka's impending exit creating an opening in the first-team midfield. He has scored three goals and provided six assists in 29 appearances for Hannover this season.
Bayern's plan is to assess Aséko during pre-season under Vincent Kompany before making a final decision on his future. He will be given the opportunity to prove he can compete in the first-team squad. Should Bayern decide to sell, they are expected to demand between €10 and €12 million.
Aséko is under contract at the Allianz Arena until 2028 and holds dual German and Equatorial Guinean nationality. His rapid development across 18 months at Hannover has attracted attention from across Europe, and the coming weeks of pre-season will go a long way to determining which path his career takes.
