Former Germany Goalkeeper Merle Frohms Loses Starting Role at Wolfsburg
VfL Wolfsburg coach confirms Anneke Borbe as first-choice goalkeeper for the remainder of the season, with Frohms set to leave the club in the summer.
- Merle Frohms, once Germany's top goalkeeper, has been replaced as VfL Wolfsburg's starting goalkeeper by Anneke Borbe.
- Coach Tommy Stroot clarified that the decision is unrelated to Frohms' expected transfer abroad this summer, which is not yet officially confirmed.
- Frohms lost her position as Germany's national team goalkeeper before the 2024 Olympics and subsequently retired from international football in September 2024.
- Despite the setbacks, Stroot emphasized Frohms' professionalism and commitment, stating she will still have opportunities to play this season.
- Frohms previously achieved significant success, including being part of Germany's runner-up finish at the 2022 European Championship and winning bronze at the 2024 Olympics.
