After a long tenure spanning 13 seasons, Nigerian international Kevin Akpoguma is preparing to bid farewell to TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. The Bundesliga club has confirmed that the center-back will depart upon the expiration of his current contract, which concludes at the end of this campaign.
Akpoguma initially joined Hoffenheim in 2013 from Karlsruher SC. Over the years, he gained valuable experience through loan spells at Fortuna Düsseldorf and Hannover 96 before cementing his place in the senior squad. However, the 31-year-old has seen limited action this term, featuring in only eight matches across all competitions.
With no extension offered by the club, Akpoguma’s final home appearance at the PreZero Arena is set for this weekend against SV Werder Bremen. The defender, who previously represented Germany at youth levels before switching allegiance to Nigeria, will now seek a new challenge elsewhere.
