Kevin Volland Departs Union Berlin for Return to TSV 1860 München

Mon 21st Apr, 2025

In a significant move within the football world, Kevin Volland is set to leave 1. FC Union Berlin this summer and return to his youth club, TSV 1860 München. This decision comes after a challenging period for the former national player, who struggled to make a substantial impact at Union.

The 32-year-old forward joined Union Berlin in the summer of 2023 from AS Monaco for approximately four million euros. During his first season, he managed to participate in 32 competitive matches, contributing four goals and five assists. However, his performance in the current Bundesliga season has been disappointing, with only three brief appearances on the pitch.

Volland's departure follows a series of criticisms from fans regarding his fitness, leading to some mockery on social media. In response, Union Berlin disabled the comment section on posts related to the player, indicating the club's sensitivity to the ongoing situation.

Returning to TSV 1860 München, where he was developed through the youth ranks, Volland hopes to revitalize his career. He expressed a sense of closure with this move, emphasizing the significance of returning to a club where he had previously played over 100 matches.

This transition marks a pivotal point in Volland's career, as he seeks to reclaim his form and contribute significantly to the third-division side. The upcoming season will be crucial for him to demonstrate his abilities and prove his worth on the field once again.
