Ogbus signs new Freiburg contract despite Forest, Leeds interest

Posted : 30 September 2024

SC Freiburg has officially announced that Bruno Ogbus, a dual-national central defender, has extended his commitment to the club by signing a new contract. The specifics regarding the length of the contract have not been disclosed, which is standard practice for the German Bundesliga club.


Ogbus's journey with Freiburg has seen him rise through the ranks after making a notable impression during pre-season matches against teams like SCR Altach, RC Strasbourg, and SpVgg Greuther Fürth. His strong performances for the youth team earned him a promotion to the first team just before the season commenced.


The Switzerland U20 international, who has Nigerian heritage, made his professional debut in the DFB-Pokal against VfL Osnabrück on August 17. He followed this with his Bundesliga debut against VfB Stuttgart on the opening day of the season, showcasing his potential at the highest level.


Interest in Ogbus grew during the summer transfer window, particularly from English clubs Nottingham Forest and Leeds United. However, Freiburg made it clear that their talented defender was not available for sale, reinforcing their desire to keep him in the squad.


In addition to the interest from the English clubs, AC Milan from Italy also sought to secure Ogbus's services before the season began, but Freiburg turned down an offer that fell within the low single-digit million range. This indicates the club's belief in Ogbus's potential and value.


Ogbus began his footballing journey at the youth academy of FC Zürich before moving to SC Freiburg in January 2022. Since joining Freiburg, he has consistently been included in the squad for every match this season, appearing in three of them thus far.


The commitment to Ogbus reflects Freiburg's investment in his future and their confidence in his abilities as a key player for the team. With his continued development, he is poised to make a significant impact in both the Bundesliga and potentially on the international stage.
