Teenage midfielder Kilian Sauck is being linked with a step up from Borussia Mönchengladbach II to Fortuna Düsseldorf, with the move currently rated at a 59% probability.
Reports in Germany suggest the 2. Bundesliga side are monitoring the 18-year-old attacking midfielder, who is registered with Gladbach’s reserve team in the Regionalliga West. Sauck’s current estimated market value stands at €75k, a modest figure that could make him an accessible option for Düsseldorf as they look to add youthful creativity to their squad without significant financial risk.
Details of any potential fee or contract situation have not been disclosed, and with no public information on the length of his existing deal at Gladbach II, observers have not ruled out the possibility that he could become available on a free transfer in the near future. For now, the interest remains at rumour stage, with no indication that negotiations are advanced.
Born in Hamburg on 27 March 2007, Sauck holds both German and Cape Verdean nationality and operates primarily as an attacking midfielder, though he is listed as comfortable with both feet. He wears the number 35 shirt for Mönchengladbach II and has come through the club’s youth structure after earlier spells at FC St. Pauli Youth and HSV Barmbek-Uhlenhorst Youth. His progression has seen him move from Gladbach’s U17s to the U19s and then into the reserve set-up.
Sauck has been plying his trade in the Regionalliga West, a competition that has served as a springboard for many young talents into the professional tiers of German football. A move to Fortuna Düsseldorf and the 2. Bundesliga would represent a significant jump in level and exposure, and if the touted transfer does materialise, it could prove a pivotal moment in shaping his early career trajectory and future reputation.
