Borussia Mönchengladbach loses winger Nathan Ngoumou to OGC Nizza. The Fohlen will reportedly accept a financial participation in a potential future resale. According to Transfermarkt, Ngoumou will undergo a medical check in Nizza on Monday. A transfer fee will not be agreed upon between the clubs, it is said. Instead, the Gladbach players will retain a 10% financial participation in a potential future resale. For the Bundesliga club, Ngoumou will be the third transfer-free departure this summer after Marvin Friedrich (30) and Jonas Omlin (32). With eight further transfers, the traditional club has generated a total transfer fee of more than 24 million euros so far. The Borussia has invested around 12 million euros in new players (all Gladbach transfers 2026/27 in the overview). Ngoumou was transferred from his training club FC Toulouse to the Niederrhein in 2022, but has repeatedly struggled with physical problems. In 2024/25, he was sidelined for even a year due to an Achilles tendon injury. In 78 official games for the Fohlen, Ngoumou scored nine goals and five assists. He did not play a single game in the previous season. His last appearance for the VfL was a brief appearance in April 2025 against FC St. Pauli (1:1). After the match, he suffered the severe injury that prevented Ngoumou from returning to the field. In Nizza, it is reported that Ngoumou is in good physical condition. The French team, led by new coach Olivier Pantaloni, is entering their 25th top-flight season, having narrowly avoided relegation in the previous season. As table 16, the Aiglons had to go to the relegation playoffs, where they secured their place in Ligue 1 with a clear win against AS St.-Étienne. The Borussia Mönchengladbach currently ranks 12th in the Bundesliga, has 38 points and has achieved 9 wins, 11 draws and 14 losses in the previous season. In the new season, the team has scored 42 goals and conceded 53 goals. The Fohlen are 51 points behind the league leaders Bayern München. The next match of Borussia Mönchengladbach is on September 5, 2026 against SV Elversberg.
