Keven Schlotterbeck's loan period with VfL Bochum has ended, and he has returned to Freiburg.

Keven Schlotterbeck, on loan from SC Freiburg and a regular at VfL Bochum, has shown somewhat reserved interest in returning to Breisgau. The situation could change, for example, if the recovery of Matthias Ginter (Achilles tendon surgery) beyond his planned return during preparation or that of Philipp Lienhart (now knee problems after groin surgery) were to be delayed. Klemens Hartenbach is sensitized, one will "watch the market with eagle eyes", says the sports director.

Keven Schlotterbeck (27) must return to his parent club SC Freiburg in the summer. However, the fact is that VfL wants to commit him permanently in the event of rescue. The central defender not only convinces on the pitch (5 goals/3 assists), but also increasingly takes on an important role in the dressing room and in front of the microphones.
