Sildillia linked with Wolfsburg switch

Germany’s Kicker Magazine reports that VfL Wolfsburg have interest in picking up Freiburg fullback Kiliann Sildillia. 

After falling into disuse in Breisgau, French Olympic representative Kiliann Sildillia could potentially find a new employer in Germany’s northern Autostadt. This is reported by Germany’s Kicker Magazine, which claims that the German Wolves may be eyeing up the 22-year-old as a potential replacement for the likely-to-depart Ridle Baku on the right flank. 

The latest news on Baku., also reported by Kicker, is that the former German international maintains no interest in extending his expiring contract. Wolfsburg may thus attempt to cash in on him during the coming January transfer window, though – per Kicker – there doesn’t appear to be any concrete interest in Baku yet. 

Silidillia may thus arrive in Lower Saxony over the summer. It remains to be seen if Sildillia has any interest in moving to Germany’s green company team, however. The former SCF academy man was heavily linked with a move back to his native France this offseason until a move to OL Marseille collapsed late.

Sildillia has mad just five substitute appearances in the league under Julian Schuster this season, never progressing past a 22-minute-shift. He started once in the recent Pokal loss against Bielefeld, lasting 76 minutes.
