There is discussion about whether Callum Marshall will return to West Ham United in the summer. It is possible that VfL Bochum may try to keep him if he continues to perform well. Marshall commented that one never knows what will happen. He said that when he was 17 years old, he thought he would play in Ireland for the rest of his career, but two months later he was at West Ham United. Marshall added that everything can change so quickly, that he gets along well with his teammates, and that what will happen remains to be seen.

Callum Marshall has joined VfL Bochum on loan from West Ham United. Marshall has completed a medical check in Bochum and participated in his first training session with the team in Belek. Head coach Uwe Rösler described Marshall as versatile, able to play as a number nine, in a strike partnership, or on the wing, and praised his pressing ability and mentality. Simon Zoller, Director of Performance Lizenz, stated that Marshall adds an important component to the squad. Zoller also expressed confidence that the transfer will be a good fit.

Northern Irish forward Callum Marshall, 21, is close to joining Bochum on loan from the English club West Ham United, with only the final details of the transfer still to be clarified. Bochum is looking for offensive reinforcement and hopes the forward will join the team soon. Marshall is a 14-cap international who has not yet scored for his country. Potential bureaucratic hurdles exist as neither Northern Ireland nor Turkey is an EU member. During the first half of the season, Marshall made two brief appearances for West Ham's senior team and also played for the U21s, where in ten competitive games he registered six goals and one assist. His contract with West Ham runs until June 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €2.00m.
