It’s now official: in the early afternoon of January 2, 2024, MSV Duisburg and 1. FC Nürnberg announced the transfer of Caspar Jander.

The 20-year-old will sign a four-year contract with the second division club on July 1, 2024, according to forecasting information, until the summer of 2028. The midfielder has played 60 competitive games for MSV to date (two goals, seven assists).

The official announcement from Duisburg did not include a statement from an MSV representative on Jander’s departure. Meanwhile, FCN sporting director Olaf Rebbe said: “We have been following Caspar for quite a while and have made several approaches. Now we are just happy that he has chosen us. We see great potential in him and are convinced that he will continue his positive development with us.”
