1. FC Union Berlin have announced the permanent signing of Stanley Nsoki from TSG Hoffenheim.

After spending the 2025/26 season on loan at Union, the centre-back has now made the move to the German capital club permanent.

“I'm very happy to become a permanent part of this special club,” Nsoki said.

“The support of the fans and the trust shown by everyone at the club helped me enormously in returning from my injury. I feel very much at home at Union and want to continue contributing to our success together.”

Referring to the injury that kept Nsoki out of the beginning of the 2025/26 campaign, Union's managing director for men's professional football, Horst Heldt, said:

“Despite a difficult start, Stanley integrated into the team very quickly and showed how valuable he can be to our style of play.

“His versatility, defensive qualities and understanding of the game are an excellent fit for Union. We're delighted that he'll be staying with us and strengthening our defence.”

Nsoki made 14 appearances across all competitions during his loan spell.
