German-Nigerian left-back David Igboanugo of W. Bremen II is being linked with a move to fellow fourth-tier side Borussia Mönchengladbach II in the Regionalliga, according to reports in Germany.
The 21-year-old defender, born in Düsseldorf and valued at €125k on Transfermarkt, currently plays for Werder Bremen’s reserves in the Regionalliga Nord but is rumoured to be on the radar of Gladbach’s second team, who compete in the Regionalliga West. The probability of the deal remains unclear, with the move currently listed as “?” in transfer reports.
Igboanugo, a left-footer who primarily operates at left-back, has dual nationality with Germany and Nigeria and wears the No 2 shirt for Bremen’s second string. His contract situation is not publicly specified, raising the possibility that Werder could face a decision over his future, with a free agent scenario not ruled out if no extension is agreed.
Recent data shows the defender continues to feature at regional level for Werder Bremen II, but detailed statistics and concrete numbers of appearances have not been disclosed. Similarly, no specific recent match – including opponent, date, scoreline or individual performance – has been officially documented in the available information.
Igboanugo, born on 8 October 2004, has developed within the German system and is registered with SV Werder Bremen II as his current “national team” designation at youth/reserve level. Standing out as a modern attacking full-back profile, he offers versatility down the left flank and fits the typical recruitment strategy of Bundesliga clubs’ second teams, who often target young, resaleable talent.
With his market value relatively modest and his contract expiry date not listed, a move to M’gladbach II would represent a low-risk piece of business for the Rhineland club and a potentially significant step for Igboanugo, who could use such a switch to sharpen his reputation and push closer to a first-team breakthrough if the transfer materialises.
