End of season races are heating up!
As Bayern Munich’s season are finishing up their season and celebrating their title, their loanees are also finishing up their seasons and fighting for promotions, titles, and against relegations. Check out how the final weeks are going for each loanee — and their teams — and what is still yet to come:
FC Bayern Munich
There are eleven players on loan from the first team.
Germany – Bundesliga
There are four players on loan in the German Bundesliga: Alexander Nübel, Franz Krätzig, Paul Wanner, and Armando Sieb.
Alexander Nübel – VfB Stuttgart
Nübel started at home for Stuttgart in the penultimate weekend of the Bundesliga season. An early red card for Augsburg gave his team a definite advantage. The match ended in a 4-0 shutout for Stuttgart, but did not require a single save from Nübel. He also completed 96% of his passes — missing on just one pass.
Stuttgart will finish their Bundesliga season on the road against RB Leipzig.
Franz Krätzig – 1.FC Heidenheim
Krätzig started for Heidenheim on the road against 1. FC Union Berlin and played the full 90 minutes. He had one shot — which was blocked — and created a chance for his teammates to shoot. He also completed 88% of his passes and kept Union at bay with ten recoveries on in the defensive midfield and helped his team keep a shutout on the road.
Paul Wanner – 1.FC Heidenheim
Wanner also started and played the full 90 minutes in Berlin. He did not have any shot attempts but created two chances for his teammates to shoot — including one that assisted Heidenheim’s third and final goal. This pushed Heidenheim to a 3-0 win on the road, which saved them from automatic relegation.
Heidenheim will host Werder Bremen on Saturday. They sit in 16th place would need a win against Bremen, Hoffenheim to lose, and to make up six goals between the two results.
Armindo Sieb – 1. FSV Mainz 05
Sieb was on the bench for Mainz’ 4-1 win on the road against Bochum, but did not make it onto the pitch.
Mainz sit in sixth place — qualifying for next season’s Conference League — going into the last match of the season. They have an outside chance to make it to the Europa League, but would need to make up three points and five goals on Borussia Dortmund.
England – Premier League
Mathys Tel is the only player on loan to England’s Premier League
Mathys Tel – Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham were in Norway on Thursday for the second leg of the Europa League semi-final against Bodo/Glimt. Tel started on the bench and Spurs could not get anything going in the attack until he came into the match in the 61st minute. Just two minutes later he took a corner kick which Romero directed towards goal with a header. Solanke was on the goal line ready to smash it home. Spurs would go onto to score another goal and win 2-0 (5-1 on aggregate) to make it to a European final.
Tel started for Spurs and played the full 90 days in the Premier League at home against Crystal Palace. He created two chances for his teammates to shoot and won the most dribbles in the match (11). He also was the most fouled on the day, but none of this mattered as Tottenham fell 2-0.
Tottenham will travel to face Aston Villa on the road on Friday.
Spain – LaLiga
There are two players on loan to Spain’s La Liga: Bryan Zaragoza and Adam Anzou
Bryan Zaragoza – CA Osasuna
Zaragoza started on the left wing on the road against Real Betis. He had four shot attempts — two missed the target, one blocked, and one on target — and created three chances for his teammates to shoot. He was also credited with a big chance missed. Zaragoza was subbed off in the 89th minute with the match level at 1-1. The match ended with that score line.
Osasuna has three matches left to make up two points and three goals to qualify for European play. Osasuna will host Atletico Madrid on Thursday and Espanyol on Sunday this week.
Adam Aznou – Real Valladolid
Aznou started and played the full 90 minutes for Valladolid on the road against Mallorca. He filled the statsheet on defense — with eight clearances, two interceptions, and four recoveries — and on the attack — with three shot attempts and one chance created. Despite his efforts Valladolid fell 2-1 on the road.
Valladolid have lost 15 of 16 matches dating back to January. They will host Girona on Tuesday and Deportivo Alaves on Sunday.
Italy – Serie A

Maurice Krattenmacher – SSV Ulm 1846
Krattenmacher started for Ulm and played 67 minutes. He had three shots — none of which were on target — and did not create any chances for his teammates to shoot. It probably did not matter much as Hamburg went on a scoring rampage with one goal in mind: promotion. Despite an early Ulm goal, Hamburg won 5-1 to clinch promotion back into the Bundesliga. Ulm was also mathematically relegated with the result.
Ulm will host Preußen Münster on Sunday in the final match of the season.
Germany – 3. Liga
