Nicolas Kühn Joins Borussia Mönchengladbach on Season-Long Loan

The move offers the 26-year-old a Bundesliga debut that could reset his career after a disappointing year in Italy.

Overview

  • The loan from Como to Borussia Mönchengladbach was completed late in the transfer window and runs for the remainder of the 2026/27 season, with club statements confirming the signing.
  • Multiple reports say the deal includes no purchase option and that Gladbach did not pay a loan fee, leaving any permanent transfer dependent on future negotiations and performance.
  • Kühn, 26, rose through German and Dutch academies before scoring 24 goals and 18 assists in 69 games for Celtic, a form that led to his €19m move to Como last summer.
  • He struggled for minutes at Como, making only a handful of league starts, being omitted from the club’s early squads, and seeing his market value fall, which helped precipitate the loan.
  • Gladbach sporting director Rouven Schröder highlighted Kühn’s left-footed, direct one-v-one ability as a tactical fit and the club will monitor his performances to judge whether he can rediscover the form that earned him his move.
