Marcel Sobottka's contract with Fortuna Düsseldorf is set to expire in a few weeks, and the club appears to be moving on without him. Despite being the vice-captain and having played 231 professional games for the club, he has been plagued by injuries, particularly muscle fiber tears, which have kept him from playing consistently. Manager Klaus Allofs has been reserved about extending Sobottka's contract, suggesting that the club may not offer a renewal. This situation hints at the possibility of Sobottka leaving Fortuna Düsseldorf.

Marcel Sobottka is in his 10th year at Fortuna Düsseldorf. It is highly likely that this will be his last season with the club. After multiple muscle injuries and inconsistent performances, it is almost certain that he will not extend his contract, which expires at the end of the season.
