Salzburg interested in German U21 international
In addition to "the Bulls," other notable clubs are also reportedly interested in the defender.
Red Bull Salzburg already has a young German central defender in its squad with Tim Drexler. According to rumors, another one could soon join.
As transfer journalist Ekrem Konur reports, "the Bulls" are reportedly interested in Linus Gechter from Hertha BSC.
However, the Salzburg club isn't the only one to have cast an eye on the 22-year-old. Eintracht Frankfurt, Borussia Mönchengladbach, and Como are also said to be showing interest.
The contract of the current German U21 international, who has been with Hertha since his youth, expires next summer.

Currently, Hertha's vice-captain is riding a wave of success with the club. In the 2. Bundesliga, "the Old Lady" is still without a loss of points. Gechter has played every minute so far this season.
Therefore, he was also unsellable for Hertha coach Stefan Leitl last summer's transfer window.
In winter, however, that could look different: If Hertha still wants to receive a transfer fee for Gechter, it's their last chance.
