Nathan Ngoumou Excluded from Borussia Mönchengladbach Squad, Future Uncertain
Borussia Mönchengladbach winger Nathan Ngoumou was left out of the squad for a 2-1 pre-season friendly win against third-division Rot-Weiss Essen on July 26, 2026. Coach Eugen Polanski stated the decision was due to squad depth, with multiple players occupying each position, and that Ngoumou was not injured or in transfer negotiations. The 26-year-old, who holds a contract until 2027 and recently became eligible for Cameroon, has received vague inquiries from Anderlecht and clubs in France and Poland, but no concrete transfer is imminent. His lack of playing time in friendlies complicates potential moves, as interested clubs want to see current performance data after his long injury layoff. The exclusion signals Ngoumou is no longer part of Gladbach's plans.
