Wolfsburg confirms: defender Pongracic is making a permanent move to US Lecce

After a year’s loan

Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg has finally handed over Croatian defender Marin Pongracic to Italian club US Lecce. The 25-year-old centre-back was on loan for the southern Italians last season, making nine appearances before suffering an ankle injury in January. Both clubs agreed on a permanent transfer on Friday.

Pongracic came to the Autostadt from RB Salzburg in January 2020 for nine million euros and has already played a year on loan for Borussia Dortmund in the 2021/22 season. Because he sued VfL during this time for payment of success bonuses, he no longer had a sporting future with the Lower Saxony. The legal dispute was settled last year in the wake of his move to Lecce.
