Career

Early career and Metz

Born in Épinal, Bussmann began his career at hometown club SAS Épinal and joined Metz in 2004 at the age of 13. While in the club's youth academy, he won the 2009–10 Coupe Gambardella after the club's under-19 team defeated Sochaux 5–4 on penalties in the final.[1] On 4 June 2010, Bussmann signed his first professional contract agreeing to a five-year deal with Metz until June 2015.[2] He made his professional debut on 20 August 2010 in a league match against Vannes starting in the left back position.[3]

Mainz 05

In August 2015, Bussmann left Metz to join German Bundesliga side Mainz 05 for a transfer fee of believed to be €1 million. He signed a two-year contract including an extension option and replaced Park Joo-ho who had moved from Mainz to Borussia Dortmund.[4]

In January 2018, Bussmann joined league rivals SC Freiburg on loan until the end of the season. Freiburg were also given an option to sign him permanently.[5] He did not make an appearance during his half season there.[6]

In summer 2018, Bussmann returned to Mainz 05. On 29 September, he earned his first Bundesliga match after 574 days, deputising for Aarón who had played the first five matches of the season.[6]
