Hertha BSC captain Fabian Reese is leaving the club to join VfL Wolfsburg, with the transfer fee expected to reach into the millions of euros.
The departure marks the end of an era for the veteran midfielder, who has been a cornerstone of the squad.
His exit is part of a broader restructuring at the Berlin club, which is simultaneously letting go of nine other players, including Leistner, Karbownik, Kownacki, Krattenmacher, Demme, Dudziak, Brooks, Jensen, and Hoffmann.
The mass exodus underscores the financial and sporting pressures facing Hertha as it attempts to stabilize its roster and navigate an uncertain future.
