- Sporting director Simon Zoller praised Rasmussen’s pace, finishing and versatility and said the club sees him as a player with development potential.
- Rasmussen becomes reported to be Bochum’s eighth summer signing as the club continues reshaping its roster and still seeks a central defender.
- The 23-year-old left Fortuna Düsseldorf after their relegation freed him from his contract despite Fortuna having paid about €1 million to Ajax for him last summer.
