Borussia Mönchengladbach confirm two transactions in ongoing keeper shuffle

While they may not have done much to address their deficiencies in attack this summer, Borussia Mönchengladbach have at least partially sorted out the squad’s goalkeeping hierarchy over the last few days. Gladbach recently confirmed two transactions involving keepers. One move counted as unsurprising while another caught Bundesliga watchers off guard.

First, 23-year-old keeper Jan Olschowsky was re-loaned back out to third tier side Alemannia Aachen. The one-time sure-fire future Gladbach no. one found himself unexpectedly displaced by Mortiz Nicolas during the 2023/24 Bundesliga season. Olschowsky finally received a developmental loan out to Aachen last winter and was able to accrue valuable playing practice via 17 3. Liga appearances.

The Gladbach squad still carries four keepers, however. It remains to be seen whether Nicolas – returning from surgery – or the squad’s official captain Jonas Omlin will claim the starting spot between the sticks. The foals also retain the services of promising young Luxembourg international Tiago Pereira Cardoso, who performed well last season when called upon.

With all of this going on, it seemed highly unlikely that the Niederrheiner would have had any interest in renewing with 37-year-old keeper Tobias Sippel. The Bad Dürkheim native himself admitted that he felt highly surprised to once again set foot on a Bundesliga pitch this past season. Sippel nevertheless received a one-year contract extension yesterday.

Gladbach made clear that Sippel would eventually move to the sidelines as a goalkeeping coach after his retirement. Sippel will actively spend time with the clubs juniors and begin integrating with the academy developmental team.

Which keeper BMG head coach Gerardo Seoane will tap to start this year remains to be seen. The race for the slot in training camp shall prove most interesting. Neither Moritz, Cardoso, or Omlin have been the subject of an exit rumors.
