Transfers Synthesis
The recorded movement pattern around 2025-26 shows Würzburger Kickers adding a visible mix of unattached players, loans and at least one conventional transfer, while departures are dominated by free-agent classifications with some entries recorded simply as transfers or without a stated type. The incoming names include players from German clubs, a Belgian source and regional sides, while outgoing destinations span German teams and clubs in Austria, Portugal, Liechtenstein and Spain. Some arrivals and departures appear in more than one dated entry or classification, so the movement picture is best understood as a recent log rather than a definitive account of every squad change. The recorded roster includes many of the recently listed arrivals, including D. Kinsombi, D. Abrangao, X. Kiefersauer, N. De Medina and L. Eberle. The listed deals carry no stated fees, so the available movement picture does not support a financial balance.
Leagues Würzburger Kickers has participated in
Würzburger Kickers have recent recorded participation in Regionalliga Bayern and Friendlies Clubs, with both entries extending through 2025. The DFB Pokal is recorded from 2014 to 2024, while the Regionalliga Promotion Play-offs appear for 2023 as a historical entry. Earlier national-league participation includes the 3. Liga from 2015 to 2021 and the 2. Bundesliga from 2016 to 2020. This footprint traces a path from regional football to two professional divisions, alongside cup and promotion-play-off appearances. The competition history does not establish a 2026-27 standing or campaign.
More about Würzburger Kickers
Würzburger Kickers, commonly known as FWK, are a football club from Würzburg in Bavaria, Germany. Founded in 1907, the club carries a traditional red-and-white identity and the nickname Rothosen, meaning Red Shorts. Its home setting is the Dallenberg facility, an intimate ground in the Dallenberg district that has also been associated with corporate naming arrangements over time. Its location near the B19 places matchday football within the city’s local sporting landscape.
For much of its history, Würzburger Kickers competed in the lower and regional levels of the German pyramid. The club’s major modern breakthrough came in the 2010s, when successive promotions carried it into the national professional game. Its recorded participation includes the 3. Liga and 2. Bundesliga, as well as the DFB Pokal. The later competitive footprint returns to Bavaria’s regional structure, with Regionalliga Bayern and promotion-play-off football also represented in the club’s records. This combination gives the team a distinctive history that connects regional roots with a recent professional ascent.
The club is organised as a registered association, supporting a member-driven culture tied closely to Würzburg and the surrounding Franconian region. Its regional football setting is connected to the Bavarian Football Association, while youth teams and academy pathways support player development and regional integration. Red-and-white colours remain central to its crest and kit traditions, and the Rothosen name provides a visible link between identity and place. Local fixtures, particularly the city rivalry with Würzburger FV, add another layer to the club’s community profile.
Taken together, the red-and-white traditions, Dallenberg setting, regional network and professional-era rise give Würzburger Kickers a profile built on local continuity and periodic upward momentum.
