Gladbach relies on Cvancara: Will the Czech stay despite rumors of a change?

Today, July 8, 2025, everything revolves around football and the realignments at Borussia Mönchengladbach. Striker Tomáš Čvančara, who was missing from Borussia's start of training, is supposedly in the firing line. Although there was a bit of unrest and speculation about a possible move for the 24-year-old Czech, there was positive news from the club. According to Bild the reason for his absence is a minor illness, and those responsible at Gladbach continue to rely on his potential.

Borussia manager Roland Virkus has expressed optimism despite a disappointing season in which Čvančara only scored two goals. It's no secret that the club is pushing for a new attack and they hope the player can prove himself in the coming months. In a personal exchange, Virkus even sought contact with Čvančara and his advisors during his vacation in order to create clarity and find a common line. It was decided that the young striker should continue to stay in Gladbach.

A look at Čvančara's career

Tomáš Čvančara was born on August 13, 2000 in Neratovice and stands an impressive 1.90 m tall. With a contract that runs until June 30, 2028, he is a central figure in the Foals' plans. According to Transfermarkt, he has been repeatedly praised throughout his career for his flexibility, as in addition to his main position as a striker, he can also act as a right winger.

After a number of youth stations, including FC Slavia Praha, Čvančara found his way to Gladbach in the summer of 2023. There he is now required to show his talent and bring the fans closer to his abilities on the pitch. He became particularly known for a turbo attack that he showed on the 33rd Bundesliga matchday against FC Bayern Munich, where he reached an impressive 35.39 km/h, even if the goal could not be converted. Virkus wants to further ignite this flame of potential this season.

Current developments in the Bundesliga

The Bundesliga is currently on the move. Last season, Bayern Munich secured the championship again and once again demonstrated their financial dominance. Next season we will see two promoted teams from last season, Holstein Kiel and VfL Bochum, in the 2nd league again, as it wasn't enough for them while FC St. Pauli was able to maintain its place in the league. The Bundesliga now has a total of 18 teams – an exciting time for all fans. According to Statista there are many interesting developments that we can look forward to.

Looking ahead to the upcoming season, it will be exciting to see whether Tomáš Čvančara can finally exploit his great potential and support Gladbach in the new season. Manager Virkus is convinced that a new drive in the team can also lead to success, and so it remains to be seen how things will develop.
