Borussia Mönchengladbach sporting director Rouven Schröder has confirmed that Joe Scally, Nathan Ngoumou and Tomas Cvancara could all leave the club before the transfer window closes. The Bundesliga side is actively trimming its squad to generate transfer revenue.
Schröder provided specific updates on each player to Bild, outlining valuation and status. The potential departures would bring welcome funds to the Foals while reducing squad size.
Scally valued at €7 million
American defender Scally represents the most valuable asset of the trio. Gladbach hope to receive around €7 million for the 23-year-old, whose contract expires next summer. Schröder told the German outlet that “something could definitely still happen there” because the player’s profile “attracts attention.”
The club are eager to secure a fee now rather than risk losing Scally for nothing when his deal ends in 12 months. The 23-year-old has attracted speculation for some time.
Ngoumou to train abroad
Winger Ngoumou is set to spend time training with another club abroad next week as he seeks regular first-team football. Schröder explained that the 26-year-old “remains a sought-after player” but has been difficult to reach following his lengthy injury lay-off. The arrangement offers Ngoumou a chance to prove his fitness.
Head coach Eugen Polanski reportedly has sufficient midfield options available, limiting Ngoumou’s prospects at Borussia-Park. The Frenchman could command a fee of approximately €1.5 million should he secure a permanent transfer.
Cvancara attracts interest
Czech striker Cvancara has attracted attention from multiple clubs despite holding a contract until 2028. Schröder confirmed there is concrete interest, though he noted the long-term deal “doesn’t necessarily fit the current market.”
The 25-year-old is valued at around €3 million. Schröder expects a solution to be found soon, remarking that he “can’t imagine” Cvancara sitting in the stands unused for the coming months.
Combined, the three potential sales could inject roughly €11.5 million into Gladbach’s coffers. The club appear determined to convert these assets into funds before the window shuts, particularly given Scally’s contractual situation.
