Werder lets Malatini go: loan to FC Cincinnati

Werder Bremen have confirmed an additional late move after the German market shut. As reported by kicker, the club will send Julian Malatini to the MLS.

The arrangement is a loan to FC Cincinnati, taking the player out of European competition and into a different football setting. Werder announced the departure two days after the transfer deadline in Germany, meaning it wasn’t part of the last-hour rush but still came quickly after the window.

For Werder, it’s a way to adjust squad plans following their business at the close. For Malatini, it’s an opportunity to keep developing while trying to earn regular minutes in the US.

What remains unclear from the available information is the exact duration and the specific usage plan in Cincinnati—what’s confirmed is the loan move itself, as stated by kicker.
