The information is brought by German outlet Sport Bild, who share some news on the transfer plans of the Bundesliga side.
Their story claims that Becker’s departure from Union Berlin ‘cannot be ruled out’, as he’s ‘hoping for a move’ to the Premier
League.
That’s where Burnley, Fulham and West Ham are all brought in, with the outlet saying those clubs are all ‘close to him’.
Another reason why Becker may be at the exit door is that he changed agents a few weeks ago, with Sport Bild saying he’s
now represented by Volker Struth’s agency Sports360.
As for the price that Burnley, Fulham or West Ham would need to pay to sign the striker this summer, it’s claimed that the
Bundesliga side are ‘hoping’ to get him sold for €20m.
Since his contract expires next year, there could be a little pressure for him to be gone this summer.
Playing for the German club last season, Becker had 12 goals and 10 assists in 48 appearances.

Sources: Burnley ponder third bid for key Kompany attacking target Zian Flemming
Premier League new boys Burnley have targeted a move for Flemming as they look to bolster their attacking options at Turf
Moor following their promotion back up to the Premier League.
Vincent Kompany’s side have firmed up their interest with two bids, which have both been rejected by Millwall.
Flemming was a club record signing of £1.7million by Millwall from Dutch Eredivisie side Fortuna Sittard last summer and
they are holding out for a big fee if they are to sell him.
It remains to be seen if Burnley will come back with a third improved bid for Flemming as they look to lure him to Turf
Moor.
Burnley are in the market for a No.10 this summer and Flemming fits the profile for the type of signing they are chasing.
Flemming made an immediate impact at the Den last season and established himself as one of the best attacking midfielders
in the EFL.
The 24-year-old scored 15 goals last season as Millwall finished just outside the Championship play-off places by one point.
In turn, he was voted by Millwall fans as the club’s player of the season for 2022-23. However, if Burnley persist, it might end up having being Flemming’s only season with Millwal.
