Sébastien Haller moves to CD Leganes on loan

Several minutes before the end of the transfer window, Borussia Dortmund agreed to loan their centre-forward Sébastien Haller, 30, to Spanish top-tier promoted outfit CD Leganes.

The loan agreement is limited to the 2024/25 campaign, which has just started.

"The story that connects us with Sébastien was a special one, is a special one and will always remain a special one. Sébastien's cancer illness was a decisive turning point in his life and for his family and friends. During this difficult time, the entire BVB family stood by his side. I will personally never forget the happiness I felt at having him back with us in good health," said BVB sporting director Sebastian Kehl, who continued: "It is now important for Sébastien that he plays regularly again and feels the joy of a goal celebration as frequently as possible. He absolutely wants to take the chance he now has in La Liga – and we hope from the bottom of our hearts that he does."

Haller, who moved to the Strobelallee from Ajax in 2022, has to date made 33 Bundesliga appearances (nine goals and five assists) and played six Champions League games, among others, for BVB.
