Overview
- German media report Union will trigger the option to buy Hoffenheim loanee Stanley Nsoki, though the club has not announced it.
- The move would keep the 27-year-old center back at Union until 2029 for about €1.5 million, as reported by Sky and BILD.
- Nsoki arrived on loan while injured, returned to fitness in October, played 12 Bundesliga matches with one goal and two assists, and had uneven form under two coaches.
- The fee is far below the roughly €12 million Hoffenheim paid Club Brugge four years ago, with BILD also estimating a €100,000 loan fee and €600,000 salary.
- Reports frame the signing as part of a defensive rebuild with Diogo Leite and Danilho Doekhi expected to exit on free transfers and Zeno van den Bosch already set to join in the summer.
