Napoli have identified Livan Burcu, Union Berlin's 2004-born winger, as a target for the January transfer window. The 22-year-old Turkish-German, born in Frankfurt on 28 September 2004, is attracting attention from several top European clubs thanks to his speed, dribbling and attacking quality.
Burcu came through the youth ranks at FSV Frankfurt and Eintracht Frankfurt, with a brief spell at Beşiktaş, before making his professional debut with Sandhausen in the 3. Liga. He joined Union Berlin in the summer of 2024, going out immediately on loan to Magdeburg. After a strong season in the second division he returned to Berlin on a permanent basis, signed a new contract, and is now looking for more playing time in the Bundesliga.
