Flins: I was surprised by Walter Mad s transfer fee, you should know that he was let go by Bremen for free

Bremen legend Flins said in an interview with sports1 that Walter Mad's transfer amount was shocking.

For Waltermad's transfer to Newcastle, Flins said: "This news on Thursday night also shocked me. He was wearing Bremen's jersey a year ago and then left for free, but now joining other teams with such a high transfer fee is really unacceptable. We cannot be sure if Waltermad will be so good if he stays in Bremen. But I think this will bother Bremen for a long time."

Regarding Bremen's performance this season, Flins said: "The team urgently needs a striker like Waltermad, because the game against Frankfurt ruthlessly exposed Bremen's lack of a stable goal and a threat to the striker."
