Eintracht Braunschweig are being linked with a move for VfL Osnabrück midfielder Kevin Wiethaup, with the 20-year-old reportedly a 20% possibility to switch clubs according to transfer data.
The 2. Bundesliga side are said to be monitoring the central midfielder, who is currently on the books at Osnabrück and carries a market value of around €125k. While no formal agreement has been reported, the interest suggests Braunschweig are exploring a relatively low-cost option to add depth in the middle of the pitch.
Wiethaup, born on 6 August 2005 in Bocholt, holds both German and Nigerian nationality and is viewed as a developing prospect rather than an immediate headline signing. His contractual situation is not publicly detailed in the available data, raising the possibility that he could become a free agent or be available for a modest fee, something that would likely appeal to Braunschweig as they look for value in the market.
The right-footed midfielder has come through the Osnabrück system, progressing from the U17s to the U19s before stepping up to the first team. In early 2025 he moved on loan to SV Rödinghausen, with that spell ending in June 2025 as he returned to Osnabrück. His recent experience spans German youth football and the 3. Liga environment, offering a grounding in competitive senior football without yet establishing him as a regular at the higher levels.
Wiethaup’s market value has fluctuated slightly, dropping from €150k at Osnabrück to €125k during his time with Rödinghausen, underlining that he remains a player in development rather than a finished article.
If Braunschweig do choose to act on their reported interest, a move to the 2. Bundesliga would represent a significant step up and could prove decisive in shaping Wiethaup’s career trajectory and broader reputation within German football.
