- Eric Hottmann activated a contract clause to depart SSV Jahn Regensburg immediately and sign with Fortuna Düsseldorf.
- Having joined Jahn in 2023, Hottmann scored 13 goals and provided five assists in the previous season.
- Regensburg faces the challenge of replacing its top scorer, as potential successors have yet to match his performance.

Eric has shown himself to be a reliable and hard-working striker during his time at SSV Jahn Regensburg. Now he has decided to use his contractually anchored exit clause to move to a league rival. We obviously regret his departure and thank Eric for his consistently professional efforts in the Jahn jersey and wish him much success for his private and athletic future in the Rhineland.— Sporting Director Alexander Schmalhofer in the club's transfer announcement
