  • VfL Osnabrück have loaned left-back Jonathan Gomez from PAOK Salonika.
  • Sporting director Joe Enochs said the U.S. international’s pace and attacking style should add dynamism to the team’s left side.
  • Gomez began his professional career in the United States, later joined Real Sociedad and played 42 competitive matches for Albacete during a loan spell last season.

VfL Osnabrück have added a fast, attack-minded left-back just before the transfer window closes. Jonathan Gomez joins the second-division club on loan from Greek top-flight side PAOK Salonika.

Sporting director Joe Enochs welcomed the move, saying, “Jonathan brings high pace and an intensive style of play, repeatedly looks to move forward and should give our left side additional dynamism.”

Gomez was born in Texas and came through the FC Dallas youth academy. He took his first steps in professional football in the United States before moving to Europe at the start of 2022 and joining Spain’s Real Sociedad.

After a loan at CD Mirandés, he moved to Greece and remains under contract with PAOK. Last year, he played on loan for Spanish second-tier club Albacete Balompié, making 42 competitive appearances.

Jonathan brings high pace and an intensive style of play, repeatedly looks to move forward and should give our left side additional dynamism.
