14.1.26 RB Leipzig

RB Leipzig have confirmed the signing of 19-year-old Nigerian youth international Suleiman Sani from Slovak club Trencin for a reported €5 million fee, with up to €1 million in add-ons. The winger, Leipzig's first addition of the January 2025 transfer window, is viewed as a long-term prospect after registering three goals and two assists this season.

8.1.26 Frankfurt

Nottingham Forest forward Arnaud Kalimuendo has joined Eintracht Frankfurt on loan until the end of the season in search of regular playing time. The 23-year-old made 14 appearances for Forest this campaign, scoring twice, but struggled for consistent opportunities in the Premier League. Kalimuendo brings proven scoring pedigree from Ligue 1, having netted 34 goals in three seasons with Rennes after earlier loan spells at Lens.

7.1.26 Mainz

Mainz have completed the permanent signing of Congolese forward Silas Katompa Mvumpa from Stuttgart, though the length of his contract was not disclosed. Sporting director Niko Bungert praised Silas' pace, dribbling ability and goal threat, while the player expressed his excitement about returning to Bundesliga action and contributing to Mainz's attacking play.

5.1.26 St. Pauli

St. Pauli have brought in goalkeeper Emil Gazdov on loan from Montreal until June 30, with an option to make the move permanent at the end of the season. The 20-year-old Canadian joins the Hamburg-based side after gaining professional experience in the Canadian Premier League and previous time in Germany with Nurnberg's academy.

2.1.26 St. Pauli

St. Pauli have completed the signing of Japan international centre-back Tomoya Ando from Avispa Fukuoka on an undisclosed deal. The 26-year-old, a three-time capped international who helped Japan win the 2024/25 East Asian Championship, made 42 appearances in 2025 and brings versatility across a back three.

11.9.25 Wolfsburg

Christian Eriksen has signed a two-year contract with Bundesliga side Wolfsburg after becoming a free agent following his Manchester United departure. The 33-year-old Denmark international brings extensive top-level experience, having played for clubs like Tottenham, Ajax, Brentford, and AC Milan. Wolfsburg praised Eriksen's leadership and quality, hoping he'll mentor their younger players.

1.9.25 Bayern

Bayern Munich have signed Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson on a season-long loan with an obligation to make the move permanent, in a deal worth up to €81.5 million. The 24-year-old Senegal international will wear the No. 11 shirt. The transfer initially collapsed due to Chelsea's need for cover following Liam Delap's injury but was revived after Jackson, already in Munich, pushed to complete the move. Bayern agreed to a €16.5m loan fee and a €65m obligation to buy in 2026.

1.9.25 Stuttgart

Nice and Stuttgart have agreed on the transfer of 20-year-old Algerian international Badredine Bouanani. After making 70 appearances and contributing 5 goals and 7 assists for Nice, Bouanani will join the German club, which will compete in the Europa League this season. The forward joined Nice in 2022 from Lille and had a loan spell at Lorient in early 2024.

1.9.25 Bayer L.

AS Monaco confirmed the transfer of 20-year-old attacker Eliesse Ben Seghir to Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen. A product of Monaco's academy, Ben Seghir made his Ligue 1 debut at 17, scoring a double in his first game. Despite injury setbacks in 2023-24, he played 46 matches last season, helping Monaco secure a second consecutive Champions League spot.

30.8.25 Dortmund

Wolves striker Fabio Silva has completed a permanent move to Borussia Dortmund, ending a five-year stint with the Premier League club. Signed for a club-record £35 million from Porto in 2020, the 23-year-old scored just five goals in 73 appearances and spent much of his time on loan at clubs including Anderlecht, PSV, Rangers, and Las Palmas. While the transfer fee is undisclosed, Wolves were reportedly seeking over £17 million.

27.8.25 Dortmund

Borussia Dortmund have secured England youth international Carney Chukwuemeka from Chelsea on a five-year contract in a deal reportedly worth around £24 million. The 21-year-old attacking midfielder, who spent the latter half of last season on loan at Dortmund, previously made 32 appearances for Chelsea following a £20 million move from Aston Villa in 2022. Additionally, Chelsea defender Aaron Anselmino has joined Dortmund on a season-long loan.

24.8.25 Borussia

Borussia Monchengladbach have signed US international Giovanni Reyna from Borussia Dortmund in a €7 million deal, including bonuses. The 22-year-old attacking midfielder becomes Gladbach's fifth summer signing and the third player to move from Dortmund to Gladbach, following Jonas Hofmann and Matthias Ginter. Reyna, whose market value has declined due to injuries and limited playing time, made just 26 appearances last season.
