Mainz and Como closing on €4m transfer of Stefan Posch

Mainz and Como are reportedly nearing a €4 million deal to re-sign Austrian defender Stefan Posch. According to Sky Germany, the Bundesliga club and the Serie A side have agreed on a transfer fee of approximately €4 million. With the arrival of Borussia Dortmund's Yan Couto on a year-long loan, Como no longer requires Posch's services.

Both Posch and Mainz have expressed a wish for the player to stay with the German side. The 29-year-old Austrian national team member is currently undergoing a medical examination and will sign his contract if the check is successful. Mainz initiated talks with Como in early August regarding the transfer of the 29-year-old defender.

Posch had previously communicated his desire to remain in Germany, and Mainz was prepared to increase their financial investment to secure his return.
