Overview
- Sporting director Rouven Schröder confirmed the termination of Tomas Cvancara’s deal in Turkey and said the striker is expected at Borussia-Park for the January 2 training start.
- Bild reports Cvancara left Antalyaspor after going months without wages, a claim not independently verified in the coverage.
- Gladbach is assessing a fresh winter loan for the 25-year-old as one of the primary options under consideration.
- If no move is arranged, he would remain on the payroll on an estimated €1.8 million annual salary and likely serve as depth rather than a regular.
- Injuries to attackers such as Tim Kleindienst, Robin Hack, Nathan Ngoumou, Jan Urbich and Franck Honorat could open a path to minutes for Cvancara.
