Anneke Borbe (born September 17, 2000) is a German football goalkeeper who plays for VfL Wolfsburg.[1]
Borbe was born in Pinneberg. She began playing soccer at SV Lieth and SC Nienstedten, where she played in mixed teams with boys.[2] In 2015, she joined Werder Bremen's youth department. At first she commuted weekly from Pinneberg before finally moving into a shared apartment in Bremen with teammate Nina Lührßen. With the SVW juniors she played 26 games in the B-Junior Bundesliga. She also played four times for the Hamburg U16 state team.
As a sixteen-year-old, Borbe made her debut in the Frauen-Bundesliga at the beginning of September 2017.[3] During the 2017–18 season she played a total of 14 times and ultimately held the league with Werder. The following year she was in goal 15 times and was relegated with the team to the 2. Frauen-Bundesliga at the end of the 2018–19 season. Werder dominated the 2019–20 second division season and went undefeated, Borbe playing in eight games. Since then, Borbe has been established as the starting goalkeeper for the team. After the 8th matchday of the 2022–23 season, she injured her hand and was initially replaced by Hannah Etzold.[4] In mid-March 2023 she was in goal again for the team for the first time in the game against Eintracht Frankfurt.[5]
At the end of February 2023, VfL Wolfsburg signed Borbe on a free transfer for the 2023–24 season.[6] Her contract initially runs until 2025.[7]
Borbe went through the DFB junior teams from U15 to U19 and made a total of ten appearances. Among other things, she took part in the Nordic Cup tournament and several European Championship qualifiers.[8]
Borbe attended high school in Bremen-Obervieland.[9] She cites Nadine Angerer as her role model.[10]
