Sofia Cava Marin leaves Bayer 04 for Borussia Mönchengladbach
Defender Sofia Cava Marin is leaving Bayer 04 Leverkusen. The 21-year-old is set to join second division Borussia Mönchengladbach following the end of her contract at Leverkusen.
“Even though Sofia was unfortunately unable to get time on the pitch here with us, she was always a valuable part of the squad,” said Achim Feifel, sporting director of the Bayer 04 Women: “She has now chosen to take a new sporting path and we wish her all the best.”
Cava Marin was given a professional contract with the Werkself in the summer of 2023 after several years in the Bayer 04 youth teams but she did not make an appearance for the Bundesliga team. Last October, she suffered a torn ACL in her right knee and was sidelined for almost the whole of last season. Since then she has completed her rehab at the Werkstatt, the Leverkusen training and rehabilitation centre at the BayArena.
