Hurzeler left St Pauli for Brighton over the summer and has settled quickly in England.
Along with Hurzeler, Bayer also have Denmark coach Kasper Hjulmand and Stuttgart's Sebastian Hoeness, along with Germany assistant coach Sandro Wagner, on their radar.
Bayer have been following Hurzeler, 31, for some time.
