Jermain Nischalke (born 26 March 2003) is a German professional footballer currently playing as a forward for Borussia Dortmund II on loan from 1. FC Nürnberg.

Club career

Born in Germany, Nischalke progressed through the academies of professional sides Berliner SC, Hertha Zehlendorf, Union Berlin and Dynamo Dresden before joining Chemnitzer FC in 2020.[2] He made his debut for Chemnitzer the following year, scoring his first goal for the club in a 3–1 Regionalliga Nordost win over Lichtenberg.[3]

In 2022, he moved to 1. FC Nürnberg, having passed through 1. FC Magdeburg without playing for the senior squad. He was promoted to the Nürnberg first team following his exploits for the reserve team, for whom he scored 9 goals and notched 5 assists in 18 appearances.[4][5] He signed his first professional contract with the club in December 2022.[6]

On 3 August 2023, Nischalke joined Borussia Dortmund II on a season-long loan deal.[7]

International career

Despite being born in Germany, Nischalke is eligible to represent Angola at international level.[1] He was called up to the Angolan senior squad in November 2022, and despite reportedly initially responding positively, he later rejected the call up, giving no reason.[8]
