Around two weeks after the season crossing, numerous German professionals without a club are still on the market-including well-known players with a lot of Bundesliga experience as well as numerous players who finally tried their luck abroad. For some, potential new employers are already evident in concrete terms, and the rumor mill is bubbling.

For example, goalkeeper routine Sven Ulreich has officially had the status without a club since July 1, but will be under a fresh work paper in the next few days. According to reports, the 36 -year -old veteran is another year with the record champions FC Bayern, for which he has completed 103 games since 2015. With a market value of 500,000 euros, the 242-time Bundesliga player is still one of the ten most valuable German professionals without an employer.

Ulreich shares the place in the ranking with five other players, including Alexander Schwolow is another goalkeeper. The 33-year-old, who, like Ulreich, broke the 200 mark on Bundesliga games, received no new contract in Köpenick after two years at Union Berlin. After his change from Gelsenkirchen in 2023, Schwolow had not been able to prevail against the Danes Frederik Rönnow, after two years there were only seven missions in the lower house for the iron. Most recently, the ex-Herhaner, among other things, had been associated with the Karlsruher SC and the 1. FC Köln, at least in the latter, after the obligation of Ron-Robert Zieler, he should no longer play a role in the number 2 of the Domstadt.

Gideon Jung can also be found among the professionals without a club. The 30-year-old defender with Ghanaian roots has 83 Bundesliga games in the service of Hamburger SV and the game association Greuther Fürth, in addition there is experience from 125 missions in the lower house. The future of the 1.89 -meter central defender is open.

The same applies to the UA at Borussia Mönchengladbach -trained wing striker Leroy Mickels (30), who most recently ran in Azerbaijan for Schamachi, as well as for the former Hamburg Jonas David (25), whose contract was not extended to the Austrian first division team WSG Tirol after seven months and 17 missions. Both players are estimated to be 600 thousand euros like ex-legsburg Bryan Hein (23).



For the Koray Günter, Dortmund, the five -year period ended with Hellas Verona on July 1, during which the 30 -year -old defender played 105 games for the Gialloblù, but was also awarded three times. Most recently at the Turkish first division club Göztepe.

The market value of the legal foot from Höxter once valued at 5 million euros recently fell to 700 thousand euros, so it is in the ranking of the most valuable clubless with wing strikers Aaron Opoku, which has been the past three years for 1. FC Kaiserslautern in the German lower house and was finally associated with a move to Poland. Last winter, a transfer of the left wing to the North American MLS had shattered.

At the top of the ranking there are four clubless players, whose market value is one million euros or above: The unique international Kevin Behrens remained after moving from Union Berlin to VfL Wolfsburg near the Lower Saxony without the hoped -for impact. After a year and a half, the attacker only had two goals from 31 Bundesliga games for the wolves, and Behren’s negative headlines also made negative headlines away from the square. The 34-year-old, like ex-Darmstadt Philipp Förster (30), is assessed at one million euros, as is still the case with both.
