As Werder Bremen officially announced this morning, Mitchell Weiser has extended his contract, which was due to expire this month.

As is customary, Bremen did not disclose the specific duration of the contract, but it is understood to be a one-year deal.

“We are delighted to continue our journey with Mitchell,” explained the club's Head of Professional Football, Peter Niemeyer.

“We remain absolutely convinced of his quality and are optimistic that Mitch will help us with his creativity in the new season after his knee injury.”

Negotiations between the parties had dragged on for several months after club insisted on a heavily performance-based contract.

Due to a cruciate ligament injury, the once ever-present player didn't play a single minute for Werder in the 2025-26 season.

However, the sides moved closer to an agreement in recent weeks, with the wing-back still highly valued at Bremen.
