Niclas Füllkrug completes loan return to Werder Bremen

Overview

Striker Niclas Füllkrug has completed his return to Werder Bremen on a one-year loan from West Ham United. The 33-year-old, a former Bundesliga top scorer and German international, finalized the move after undergoing a medical examination at the Weserstadion.

The transfer follows West Ham’s relegation to the Championship and a difficult period for Füllkrug in England, which included a recent loan spell at AC Milan. To facilitate the move to his former club, Füllkrug reportedly agreed to waive a significant portion of his salary, previously estimated at approximately 2 million euros net per year. This arrangement also assists West Ham in reducing its wage bill. The deal includes no option to buy.

Werder Bremen officials, including head of professional football Peter Niemeyer and head coach Daniel Thioune, have welcomed the signing. They described Füllkrug as a “classic goalscorer” and a “leadership figure” who is expected to integrate immediately due to his deep history with the club. Officials further characterized the signing as a “Soforthilfe” (immediate help) for the team’s offensive lineup. Füllkrug has expressed enthusiasm regarding his return to his boyhood club, stating, “I have never hidden that Werder is a very special club for me.”
