According to Bild, there are ongoing discussions concerning a player's future. Everything was discussed with the player, but the club believes it was not sensible to play him in the test against Aarau because he is not mentally prepared for it. The club requires players who are completely focused on ensuring the group functions effectively. This situation is reportedly not related to a solution being imminent. It was stated that the club is not saying they will release the player and does not feel it is necessary, but they are receptive to discussions.

According to Bild, Dominik Kother was absent because he intends to transfer. The report also states that nothing has been finalized yet.

A loan until summer is considered likely for German winger Dominik Kother, 25, if his performance does not improve in the winter camp. This season in the 2. Bundesliga, Kother has made one appearance and provided one assist for SG Dynamo Dresden, the club he joined on January 6, 2025. The former Germany U21 international, who has a contract until June 30, 2027, has a current market value of €600k according to Transfermarkt.
