Borussia Mönchengladbach's transfer activity ahead of the 2026/27 Bundesliga season is likely over. According to a report from onefootball.com on Tuesday, the club does not plan any further signings and is now focused on potential departures. The team finished the previous season in 14th place with 30 points from 29 games, recording seven wins, nine draws, and 13 losses. They need to improve their form after a recent run of LDDWL.
Which players could still leave Gladbach?
The club's management is now waiting for concrete offers for players who are not in the plans of the coach and sporting director. Several candidates for a move have been identified, but the market is moving slowly. This strategic patience aims to prevent the squad from becoming too large and players without prospects for minutes staying at the club. The clear focus is on streamlining the team before the first competitive match against SV Elversberg on September 5th.
What is the current sporting situation?
The numbers from the past season highlight the need for action. Gladbach scored 35 goals but conceded 49, resulting in a negative goal difference of -14. The gap to champions Bayern Munich was 46 points at the end. These deficits must be addressed in the new season, with those in charge relying on internal development and a stable tactical foundation. The current squad planning is aligned with these goals, and further transfers would only disrupt the process.
What does this mean for squad planning?
The decision not to make more signings signals trust in the existing core of players. It is a clear commitment to continuity and to the players who impressed during pre-season. At the same time, the club remains alert on the transfer market should an unexpected opportunity arise or a key player leave unexpectedly. The priority, however, is working with the available personnel. Fans can view the current squad on our squad page.
When does Gladbach's new season begin?
The official kick-off is on September 5th with the home match against newly-promoted SV Elversberg. This duel is the first test for the solutions developed during pre-season. Until then, training will be intensified to find peak fitness. You can find the complete schedule for the first half of the season on our fixtures page. The team aims to use the remaining time to leave the negative trends of last season behind and start the new era with a victory.
