Maximilian Philipp (born 1 March 1994) is a German professional footballer who plays as a forward for Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg.

Club career[]

Philipp started his career in his hometown club, Hertha BSC. In 2008, he joined Tennis Borussia Berlin.

SC Freiburg[]

In 2012, he signed with SC Freiburg. On 5 April 2014, he made his first-team debut at SC Freiburg, in a Bundesliga match against VfB Stuttgart replacing Felix Klaus in the 90th minute.[1]

Borussia Dortmund[]

On 7 June 2017, attacking midfielder Maximilian Philipp signed a five-year contract with Borussia Dortmund until 2022.[2] The transfer fee paid to Freiburg was reported as €20 million plus bonuses.[3] BVB's sporting director Michael Zorc described Philipp as "versatile" and "has a good shot and he has a fantastic future ahead of him."[4] Philipp made his debut for BVB on 6 August 2017 in the team's 2–2 draw (6–7 on penalty) against Bayern Munich in DFL Super Cup, substituting for Christian Pulisic at 90' and netting BVB's second penalty.[5] He started for Dortmund for the first time on 19 August 2017 in BVB's 3–0 away victory in Wolfsburg.[6] On 18 September 2017, Philipp scored his first goal for BVB in the team's 5–0 home victory against 1. FC Köln.[7] He went on to net his second goal in the same game.[8] He made his UEFA Champions League debut on 26 September 2017 as Dortmund suffered home defeat against Real Madrid.[9]

Dynamo Moscow[]

On 9 August 2019, Philipp signed a 4-year contract with the Russian club Dynamo Moscow.[10] He scored his first goal for Dynamo 3 minutes into his debut game against FC Lokomotiv Moscow on 18 August 2019, from a direct free-kick.[11] In his second game against FC Tambov on 24 August, he scored again as Dynamo won 2–0 away.[12] On 23 November 2019, he scored twice from the penalty spot to secure a 2–1 victory over FC Rostov.[13] In the next game on 1 December 2019 he scored twice again in a 2–1 defeat of FC Lokomotiv Moscow.[14] He was voted player of the month for December 2019 by Dynamo fans.[15]

VfL Wolfsburg[]

On 2 October 2020, he returned to Bundesliga, joining VfL Wolfsburg on a season-long loan.[16] In the spring of 2021, the club announced that it intends to keep Philipp in its lineup, "if the opportunity arises." However, the repayment period for a fixed amount of 11 million euros has already expired and the Germans will have to negotiate with Dynamo on a new one.[17]

On 16 June 2021, Wolfsburg agreed on a permanent transfer with Dynamo and Philipp signed a 4-year contract with the club.[18]
