Dickson Abiama is being linked with a move from 1.FC Kaiserslautern to Rot-Weiss Essen, with the German 3. Liga side reportedly exploring a deal for the right winger.
The 27-year-old, listed with dual Nigeria-Germany nationality, is currently valued at €400,000, according to Transfermarkt, with the rumoured switch recorded on 28 May 2026. The probability of the transfer remains unclear and is officially marked as “?”, while there is no public indication of a fixed contract expiry date, leaving scope for a potential free-agent situation or low-cost deal if Kaiserslautern choose to move him on.
Abiama, who stands at 1.84m and prefers to operate off the right flank, has been playing in Germany’s 2. Bundesliga with Kaiserslautern and is now being linked down a division to the 3. Liga with Essen. The Nigerian-born forward, who was born in Lagos on 3 November 1998, is comfortable as an attacking right winger and wears the No 11 shirt at RW Essen in current listings.
Recent data places Abiama at Rot-Weiss Essen already, but the latest transfer reports suggest a renewed connection between the two clubs, with the 3. Liga outfit again named as his next possible destination should his time in Kaiserslautern come to an end. With no confirmed contract end date published, talk around a potential “contract expired” scenario and the possibility of him becoming a free agent has fuelled further speculation.
Marketed at €400k, Abiama would represent a relatively modest investment for a club seeking proven attacking depth from the wider areas. While detailed, verified recent match specifics – such as opponent, date, scoreline and individual performance – have not been formally disclosed in the latest data, interest in the winger underlines his ongoing relevance in Germany’s professional tiers.
If the move to RW Essen does materialise, it could offer Abiama a platform to re-establish himself as a key attacking figure, shape his reputation in the 3. Liga and potentially trigger another step up later in his career.
