Jordy Makengo’s time at SC Freiburg has yet to meet his expectations, with limited minutes for the 23-year-old raising questions about his future.
A fresh opportunity may be on the horizon, as SV Werder Bremen reportedly have the versatile left-back on their radar.
According to Football Transfers, the Green-Whites are exploring Makengo as a potential reinforcement, alongside interest from Olympiakos Piraeus. Bremen sees the Frenchman as a candidate for their left rail role in the 3-4-3 setup, currently held by Olivier Deman. Deman has struggled to secure consistent playing time, leaving the position open to new competition.
Makengo’s adaptability could also make him an option in central defense, where Anthony Jung currently starts. At 33 years old, Jung’s long-term future at Bremen is uncertain, with his contract extension yet to be finalized.
Makengo’s ability to slot in as both a left-back and left-centre defender aligns perfectly with Bremen’s search for defensive depth. Whether this interest materializes into a transfer remains to be seen, but the coming weeks could define the next step in Makengo’s career.
