Leeds United defender Isaac Schmidt is close to lending to Welder Bremen for the rest of the season.
According to reports, Leeds has secured an agreement with the German club for a loan exit for the 25-year-old defender. The players joined Leeds last summer, but Schmidt struggled with regular game times at Elland Road. He has made 14 appearances in all competitions and needs movement due to normal playing time. The loan spell at a German club might be ideal for him as he tries to get his career back on track with consistent football.
Isaac Schmidt needs to leave
He would have been struggling with regular game times in the Premier League this season, as Leeds doesn’t see Schmidt as an important part of their plans.
According to German outlet Deitstuve, Werder Bremen has agreed with Leeds to sign players with the option to purchase. It will be interesting to see if the 25-year-old will be impressed during his time at the German club and can persuade him to sign forever at the end of the season. He has no future in Leeds, so moving to Germany forever might be ideal for him.
Schmidt will try to revive his career
The 25-year-old received high praise before moving to Leeds, and he is trying to get his career back on track. He is relatively young and he still has plenty of time to fulfill his potential. It would be interesting to see if he could hit the ground running in German football. There is no doubt that he has defensive quality. The German club certainly hopes he can make an impact this season. With a loan agreement, there is a real possibility that the transfer will end as a bargain.
