Bayern announced on Monday the surprise signing of 31-year-old forward Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting from Paris Saint-Germain, brought back Brazilian winger Douglas Costa in a loan deal from Juventus, and signed defender Bouna Sarr from Marseille as a backup option for compatriot Benjamin Pavard.
Cuisance arrived at FC Bayern from Borussia Mnchengladbach in the summer of 2019. In his first season, the midfielder made eleven competitive appearances for the first team (1 goal), and five for the FC Bayern reserves (2 goals). The France U-20 international celebrated winning the treble as well as the German 3rd division championship in the summer.
Choupo-Moting was available on a free transfer after his contract with PSG expired at the end of last season. He signed a contract through June 30 and will provide backup for star striker Robert Lewandowski.
Hertha signed French midfielder Matteo Guendouzi on loan from Arsenal for the season, Paraguay defender Omar Alderete from Swiss side Basel, and brought midfielder Eduard Lwen back ahead of schedule from a loan at Augsburg on Monday.
Hoffenheim also agreed on a loan deal for former Germany midfielder Sebastian Rudy from Schalke for the season. The 30-year-old Rudy returns for his third stint at the club. He has already made 227 Bundesliga appearances for Hoffenheim, more than any other player.
