Farid Alfa-Ruprecht has joined Bundesliga 2 side VfL Bochum on loan for the 2025/26 season.
The 19-year-old forward, who recently signed a long-term contract with Bayer Leverkusen until 2030 after leaving Manchester City, will continue his development with regular first-team football at Bochum. He has been handed the number 29 jersey for the season.
Alfa-Ruprecht, who is eligible to represent both Germany and Ghana, is considered one of the bright young attacking prospects in European football. His loan move is expected to give him valuable playing time and experience in German football’s highly competitive second tier.
