Brann midfielder Felix Horn Myhre has received a €2.7 million bid from La Liga club Elche, according to Bergens Tidende and Bergensavisen. The 27-year-old attacking midfielder also has interest from English side West Bromwich Albion. Brann currently sits 8th in Eliteserien with 19 points from 15 games (6 wins, 1 draw, 8 losses), but may now lose one of their key players.
What is the bid?
Elche has reportedly submitted a concrete offer of €2.7 million for Horn Myhre. The amount is significantly higher than what Brann paid when they signed him from Vålerenga in 2021. Reports also suggest West Bromwich Albion is interested, which could lead to a bidding war.
Why is Horn Myhre important to Brann?
Horn Myhre has been a central player for Brann since joining the club. With 30 goals scored and 25 conceded this season, he is one of the team's most productive players. Brann has already lost Sakarias Opsahl due to injury, and losing Horn Myhre could be a major blow.
What happens next?
Brann faces Universitatea Cluj in the Europa Conference League on Thursday, and Horn Myhre's performances could determine if the bids increase. When Brann hosts Lillestrøm on September 5, the situation may be clearer. The club must decide whether to sell or keep one of their best players.
