Overview
- Bayer and Gladbach confirmed Omlin’s loan through season’s end with no purchase option after he completed a medical.
- Omlin is designated as the number two behind Janis Blaswich and is set to return to Gladbach, where he is contracted until 2027.
- Coach Kasper Hjulmand said Blaswich remains first choice and will start against Villarreal in the Champions League.
- Flekken’s knee issue is projected to sideline him until at least mid‑March and possibly into late March.
- The deal set off a ripple effect as Gladbach recalled Jan Olschowsky from Alemannia Aachen, which in turn signed veteran Manuel Riemann.
