After a horror year
Lainer extends his contract with Mönchengladbach until 2026
Stefan Lainer remains a "Foal": The 31-year-old from Salzburg has extended his contract with German Bundesliga club Borussia Mönchengladbach until the summer of 2026. The club made the announcement on Tuesday.
"I'm already looking forward to repaying the club's trust, tearing myself apart and throwing everything into it so that we do better than last season," the right-back explained in a statement.
Gladbach only finished 14th last season. Lainer missed the first half of the season due to lymph node cancer. The veteran, who moved to the Rhineland from Red Bull Salzburg in 2019, has since overcome the illness. "Last season wasn't easy, for me personally and also for the club," explained Lainer. He fought his way back in the spring and played 15 Bundesliga games and one DFB Cup match.
Missed out on participation in the European Championship
Lainer narrowly missed out on participation in the European Championship. Although the Gladbach player was initially included in the 29-man squad for the tournament in Germany, team boss Ralf Rangnick ultimately decided to forgo the services of the experienced defender.
