Wilfried Kanga Transfers to Dinamo Zagreb from Hertha BSC
The Ivorian striker ends his Cardiff City loan early to join the Croatian champions, providing financial relief for Hertha BSC.
- Wilfried Kanga, 26, has left Hertha BSC to sign permanently with Dinamo Zagreb, Croatia's top football club.
- The transfer ends Kanga's loan spell at Cardiff City, where he struggled to make an impact in the English Championship, scoring no goals during the first half of the season.
- Hertha BSC will receive approximately €2 million in transfer fees plus bonuses, while also reducing their wage bill as Kanga was under contract until 2026.
- Kanga previously played for Standard Liège on loan, scoring 12 goals in 36 matches, but failed to secure a long-term deal with the Belgian side.
- Dinamo Zagreb, who face Arsenal in the Champions League this week, gain a forward with international experience for Ivory Coast and past stints in Germany, Belgium, and England.
