Borussia Mönchengladbach hopes for Elvedi extension. Coach Eugen Polanski uses a captain's coup to convince defender Nico Elvedi to extend his contract. Elvedi, who joined the club from Zürich in 2015, had planned to use the World Cup in the USA, Canada, and Mexico as a platform to promote himself to a larger and internationally competing club. However, Manager Rouven Schröder says: "There is no inquiry for Nico, nor for Moritz Nicolas. We would deal with it professionally and weigh sporting and financial aspects." Polanski hopes that the captain's coup can contribute to convincing Elvedi to extend his contract. The coach said: "Nico is a really good player and leads the group. He is a deserving player, with whom the club and the responsible parties have a special relationship." Borussia Mönchengladbach currently occupies the 12th place in the Bundesliga, with 38 points from 34 games. The team has achieved three wins and two losses in the last five games. The last match report reads: Borussia Mönchengladbach 4-0 1899 Hoffenheim (2026-05-16).
