Overview
- VfL Wolfsburg confirmed the signing of Timon Wellenreuther from Feyenoord with a contract running until 30 June 2029.
- Sporting director Pirmin Schwegler highlighted Wellenreuther's European competition experience and recent captaincy at Feyenoord as reasons for the recruitment.
- Wellenreuther returns to German professional football after nine years abroad, having played for Feyenoord, Willem II and RSC Anderlecht following his development at Karlsruher SC and early promotion at Schalke.
- The move comes during a wider goalkeeper overhaul at Wolfsburg: Marius Müller has already left for Aberdeen and first-choice Kamil Grabara is expected to depart, leaving the position in active transition.
- Wellenreuther's multi-year deal gives Wolfsburg an experienced option who can compete for the starting spot, provide dressing-room leadership and signal the club is planning longer-term stability in goal.
