Borussia Mönchengladbach forward Tomas Cvancara has hit out at the Bundesliga club and seeks a summer transfer because he doesn't feel treated in a fair way.
Czech Cvancara said on Instagram on Wednesday that he had asked for a January loan to get more matches in the wake of injury which he said "was not granted and instead I got promises that were not fulfilled."

The 24-year-old came to Gladbach in 2023 and has a contract until 2028.
He did not share what kind of promises were not fulfilled but he appears not satisfied because he is not a regular starter and mainly used as a winger instead of a centre forward. He has two goals from 26 appearances, and one dismissal.
As a result, he said he would a summer exit.
"Even though I was not convinced of my role and I was not happy with it I always left 100% on the pitch and the best I could give to the team at the moment," he said.
"The fact that someone started to mind when the club stopped doing well, that I wanted to leave in the winter, and I have the same plan in the summer, is just as funny as the fact that someone told the media."

The Sport Bild weekly reported that team-mates had asked coach Gerardo Seoane ahead of a recent 4-3 defeat at Holstein Kiel not to field Cvancara because of a lack of dedication.
Gladbach have claimed just two points from their last five games and in ninth place are all but out of contention for a place in Europe. They visit freshly crowned champions Bayern Munich on the penultimate matchday Saturday.

Chelsea working on deal to beat Liverpool to striker target
Chelsea Push Ahead in Ekitike Race as Liverpool Assess Options Premier League giants pursue Eintracht Frankfurt striker amid growing transfer urgency Chelsea have accelerated their interest in Eintracht Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike and are currently working on a verbal agreement regarding personal terms, according to Sky Germany's Florian Plettenberg. The Blues intend to follow that up with more formal negotiations with the Bundesliga side in the coming days. The French forward has attracted strong interest from both Chelsea and Liverpool, with the latter exploring attacking reinforcements as part of a multi-pronged summer rebuild. However, Chelsea's more aggressive stance in recent days has seen them move ahead in the queue. Photo IMAGO Advertisement Frankfurt are said to be demanding €100 million (£84 million) for Ekitike, a figure both Premier League clubs would be reluctant to meet in full. Chelsea, however, are reportedly hopeful of negotiating the fee down to approximately €77 million (£65 million). Chelsea's striker strategy takes shape Despite already completing the £30 million signing of Liam Delap from Ipswich Town, Chelsea remain determined to recruit a second centre-forward. The club views Ekitike as a potential first-choice option, someone who could immediately start ahead of Delap in Enzo Maresca's attacking setup. Photo IMAGO Should both Delap and Ekitike arrive this summer, there may be movement elsewhere in the squad. Nicolas Jackson's future is under discussion, with the suggestion that Manchester United could be preparing a move for the Senegal international. Photo: IMAGO Chelsea's push comes amid a broader squad overhaul at Stamford Bridge, where multiple senior players are expected to depart. Bringing in Ekitike would signal a long-term commitment to building a young, dynamic attack, one aligned with the club's strategic recruitment model. Liverpool's stance shaped by potential outgoings Liverpool also admire Ekitike, but their approach appears more cautious. The Anfield hierarchy are unlikely to make a concrete move without first offloading Darwin Núñez, who continues to attract interest from clubs in Saudi Arabia. Photo: IMAGO With Alexander Isak deemed unattainable this summer, Ekitike has risen on Liverpool's shortlist. However, the Merseyside club have other priorities at present, including completing deals for Milos Kerkez and Florian Wirtz. The club are also monitoring left-wing options, particularly with ongoing uncertainty over Luis Díaz's future. Photo IMAGO Ekitike scored 22 goals and provided 12 assists in a standout campaign for Frankfurt and is widely viewed as one of Europe's most promising young strikers. The player is understood to be open to a move, with Frankfurt granting him the green light to leave — but only on their terms. Ekitike pursuit could go late into window While Chelsea appear to have taken the initiative, sources believe this transfer could remain active deep into the summer. If Frankfurt soften their stance or if Liverpool are able to generate funds through player sales, the dynamic could yet shift. For now, Chelsea lead the race. But Liverpool, patient and pragmatic, are not out of it.

Real Madrid dealt blow as long-term target informs Xabi Alonso he will not move to Spain
Real Madrid dealt blow as long-term target informs Xabi Alonso he will not move to Spain Florian Wirtz is a player that Real Madrid have admired for quite some time now and have held an interest in signing the Bayer Leverkusen sensation. With current Leverkusen boss, Xabi Alonso, set to take over the reins at the Santiago Bernabeu soon, the interest had seemingly gotten stronger as the Basque coach was keen on bringing the 22-year-old along with him to Madrid. Advertisement However, Wirtz has also been attracting serious interest from other top clubs, including Manchester City. And the Bundesliga gem seems to have made his decision already which will come as a blow for Los Blancos. Florian Wirtz wants Bayern Munich, informs Alonso Indeed, according to BILD, Wirtz has informed Xabi Alonso that he has ruled out moves to Real Madrid and Manchester City – his only destination of interest is Bayern Munich. Wirtz unlikely to follow Alonso to Real Madrid. (Photo by) This development strongly suggests that the Wirtz family, led by the player's father and advisor Hans Wirtz – who has a close relationship with Bayern honorary president Uli Hoeness – has reached a basic agreement with the Bundesliga giants. Advertisement The timing of the move remains uncertain, as Wirtz is still under contract at Leverkusen until 2027. One of the most exciting young talents in Europe, Wirtz could have been an excellent addition at Real Madrid, who could be looking at some major tweaks in the summer after a season that has not met expectations. However, it appears that the 22-year-old and his camp have their hearts set on a move to Bayern Munich, thus ruling out the possibility of a reunion with Alonso, who is understood to be the leading candidate to succeed Carlo Ancelotti at Real Madrid.
