SC Freiburg, FC Augsburg, and Eintracht Frankfurt all have fresh loan outs to confirm. The trio of Bundesliga clubs have shed players off their squad ahead of the new Bundesliga campaign. Freiburg and Augsburg have sent Florent Muslija and Henri Koudossou to 2. Bundesliga outfits while Frankfurt have parked Kriszti\u00e1n Lisztes with his former academy side Ferencv\u00e1rosi TC in his native Hungary.<\/p>\n
Muslija never found his footing with Freiburg after joining the Breisgauer\u00a0<\/em>on a \u20ac1m transfer from Paderborn during the January 2024 transfer window. In the past 18 months, the 30-times-capped Kosovo international only logged 275 minutes of action under SCF head coaches Christian Streich and Julian Schuster.<\/p>\n Muslija did bring with him some Bundesliga experience (and a pair of top flight goals) from his time spent with Hannover 96 during the 2018\/19 season, but couldn’t replicate his success this time. The 27-year-old returns to the second division on a season-long-loan with Fortuna D\u00fcsseldorf.\u00a0<\/p>\n D\u00fcsseldorf have been proactive in attracting players with top division experience this summer<\/a> and – with the addition of Muslija – procured a serviceable replacement for departed attacking midfielder \u00cdsak Bergmann J\u00f3hannesson.<\/a> Kicker <\/strong>and other German media outlets confirm the existence of a purchase option as part of the deal.\u00a0<\/p>\n Augsburg’s Henri Koudoussou, meanwhile, heads to 2. Bundesliga outfit FC N\u00fcrnberg without a purchase option. As reported earlier, Augsburg have no plans on giving the 25-year-old talent up.<\/a> The Fuggerst\u00e4dter simply wish to ensure that the wingback they recently signed to a lucrative contract extension<\/a> receives more playing time.\u00a0<\/p>\n In the case of Lisztes, the player Eintracht once heavily recruited has been unable to make his Bundesliga debut due to injury. Frankfurt remained very keen on the talented attacking midfielder. The RheinMainAdler <\/em>paid Ferencv\u00e1rosi\u00a0\u20ac6m to secure his services in the summer of 2023, agreeing that he would not join up with the SGE until the summer preceding the 2024\/25 season.\u00a0<\/p>\n Persistent muscular issues unfortunately meant the Lisztes only made three appearances for the Eintracht reserves last year. Lisztes had hoped to follow in the footsteps of his father of the same name. The senior Listztes featured for ten years in the German top flight, representing VfB Stuttgart, Werder Bremen, and Borussia M\u00f6nchengladbach between 1996 and 2006.<\/p>\n \u201cKriszti\u00e1n Lisztes has great potential, which he has unfortunately not been able to show in his first year with us,<\/em>\u201d Eintracht Frankfurt sporting director Timmo Hardung ruefully noted in a club statement. \u201cWe are convinced that the loan to his home club will help him gain playing experience and further his development.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWhen the opportunity arose to sign Henri [Koudossou] for the club, we were determined to take it<\/em>,” N\u00fcrnberg sporting director Joti Chatzialexiou said of his new signing. “The signing not only further increases competition for places in this position, but also gives us additional flexibility, as Henri can play on both the right and left sides.<\/em>\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n \u201cWith his creativity, goal-scoring threat and excellent set pieces, Flo [Muslija] brings important skills that will definitely enrich our attacking play,<\/em>\u201d Fortuna sporting director Christian Weber said of his new signing. \u201cWe are delighted that we were able to convince him to make the move to the 2nd division to prove his class once again and help us achieve our goals.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n
