Time to revamp the KSC squad for the 2025/2026 season, baby! With promotion within reach, the KSC's transfer plans are heating up as we head for the summer window. Let's take a look at the rumors, confirmed deals, and potential signings that might shake things up at the Wildpark.
After a solid season on the pitch, all eyes are on Mario Eggimann, the new sporting director, to see how he shapes his first transfer period. As the window approaches on July 1, we'll have our eyes glued to the KSC Transfer-Ticker for all the action.
June 6: The KSC is reportedly setting sights on VfB talent Laurin Ulrich, a 20-year-old midfielder. Heard through the grapevine that the KSC has already inquired with the Swabians about this young gun.
June 5: A rough time for Mikkel Kaufmann, who's heading back to 1. FC Heidenheim after a not-so-hot loan spell with KSC. But competition in the attack is fierce, and we're uncertain where the 24-year-old Dane will land next.

May 30: KSC just wrapped up their first summer signing: Paul Scholl, a defensive talent from FC Bayern Munich, is switching to the Wildpark on loan with a purchase option. The 18-year-old is an athletic, tough-as-nails player with loads of potential.
May 28: Thought Louey Ben Farhat was leaving for pastures new? Think again, mate. After recurring rumors about a departure, he's extended his contract with KSC. Hungry for more goals, eh?
