Blessin to Borussia Mönchengladbach
Alexander Blessin has signed a contract until 2028 with Borussia Mönchengladbach.

Blessin will hold his first press conference on Wednesday at 13:30, free to follow via the FohlenApp.
Blessin left Belgium to be closer to his wife, after she suffered a spinal cord infarction. The German club hopes that with his experience it can steer the team back towards the top of the competition.
