VfL Bochum is one of three clubs attempting to secure a loan for Bruno Ogbus, a 20-year-old defender from SC Freiburg who also holds Nigerian citizenship. The other interested parties are reportedly SpVgg Greuther Fürth and FC Luzern. A loan is being considered as the Swiss player's development at Freiburg has not progressed, and he has not received any Bundesliga minutes during the current season's first half, making 13 appearances in the Regionalliga Südwest. A Switzerland U21 international with 6 caps, Ogbus joined Freiburg in July 2024 and has a current market value of €1.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
