Borussia Mönchengladbach are being linked with a move for Lausanne-Sport centre-forward Omar Janneh in a deal that would see the 19-year-old swap the Swiss Super League for the Bundesliga.

The teenager, who holds both Spanish and Gambian nationality, is currently on the books of Lausanne-Sport and plays primarily as a centre-forward, wearing shirt number 78. According to data sourced from Transfermarkt on 8 May 2026, Janneh is being monitored by Mönchengladbach, with the move classed as a rumour and the probability of it happening listed as “?”.

Janneh, valued at €4.00m, has yet to see his contract details publicly clarified, with no recorded expiry date. That uncertainty has fuelled speculation that the striker could become a free agent in the near future if no formal long-term agreement is in place, potentially lowering the financial barrier for any club looking to prise him away from Switzerland.

Born in Lleida, Spain, on 23 August 2006, the 1.88m forward is noted as being comfortable with both feet and is listed in his main position as an attacking centre-forward. He represents Lausanne-Sport at club level and is registered under their name at national-team level in the data provided, underlining how early he is in his senior career.

Lausanne-Sport compete in the Swiss Super League, while Borussia Mönchengladbach would offer Janneh a step up into the Bundesliga if any move were to materialise. No transfer fee beyond his current market valuation has been reported at this stage, and there is no indication yet of advanced talks.

If the transfer were to go through, a switch to Mönchengladbach could be a defining moment in Janneh’s development, giving the young dual-nationality forward a bigger stage on which to prove his potential and shape the next phase of his career.
