Cameron Puertas: Werder's loanee is fighting for his breakthrough!
A lot of the Bundesliga revolves around the talented players who have the potential to prove themselves in the spotlight. One of these promising personalities is Cameron Puertas, who is currently playing at Werder Bremen on loan from Al-Qadsiah FC. But so far the 27-year-old Spaniard, who was born in Switzerland, has not yet been able to fully meet the high expectations. After his performances so far, the question arises: Where does the path lead for Puertas?
Since his arrival in September 2025, head coach Horst Steffen has been hoping for a breakthrough from the dynamic midfielder. Puertas is known for his dribbling strength and his creative ideas on the pitch. He has played in all eight possible Bundesliga games this season, but often only came on as a substitute, which suggests that he has not yet been able to reach his full potential. Steffen emphasizes that Puertas trains with dedication and believes in his abilities. Such statements can only be encouraging.
Commitment and performance
Puertas’ Bundesliga debut was promising. In an impressive 4-0 win against Borussia Mönchengladbach, he achieved a grade of 2.5 and thus made his first clear statement. He also scored a grade of 2 against FC St. Pauli. Unfortunately, his last appearances on the wing were less successful, with final placings of 5.5 against Freiburg, 4 in Mainz and 6 in Heidenheim. It is important to improve here if Puertas wants to make his loan in Bremen a success.
Expectations for Puertas are high. His versatility and ability to make set pieces dangerous make him a valuable player. Nevertheless, the competition within the team seems to be strong. Steffen doesn't give false hope and points to other talents such as Victor Boniface and Samuel Mbangula, who were also on the bench but later had a decisive influence on the games.
A look at the future
What could the future hold for Cameron Puertas? His loan deal with Werder Bremen includes an option for a permanent move, which raises hopes that a successful breakthrough could also lead to a longer stay at the club. The next games are crucial for the 27-year-old, but the omens are good: an exciting duel against RB Leipzig is on the agenda next Sunday.
The development of Puertas remains exciting. If he uses the next few weeks to integrate better and stabilize his performance, he could soon play a key role at Werder Bremen. The fans and coach Steffen are keeping their fingers crossed that the loan from Saudi Arabia can soon realize its full potential.
