The move to Bavaria did not pay off for the forward. Now he is hoping for a successful comeback in Saxony.

Kevin Yebo is returning to basketball Bundesliga club Niners Chemnitz. Champions FC Bayern Munich announced that the forward, who will turn 29 next week, is moving back to Chemnitz after just six months with the Bavarians. The contract, which originally ran until 2027, was terminated by mutual agreement.

"Kevin has decided to give up his place in the team for personal reasons. We hope for his sake that his new start in Chemnitz will be successful," said FCBB sporting director Dragan Tarlac.

Yebo played 13 Bundesliga games for Bayern with an average of 3.2 points, his best performance being 13 points in the away win in Rostock in mid-December. He has been called up 15 times in the EuroLeague and was last in the squad for the home game against Frankfurt a month ago. He is expected to make his comeback for Chemnitz this Saturday evening.
