Borussia Mönchengladbach confirmed a two-year-extension for the 26-year-old on Thursday afternoon. Hack new deal in Niederrhein now runs through 2029.

Hack opened up his 2023/24 Bundesliga account with a brace against VfB Stuttgart on match-day 17. Another brace in a 3-3 draw with Köln on match-day 22 popularized the term (using the German word for brace) "Robin hack Doppelpack". Hack would also score a hat trick against Hoffenheim on match-day 30.
“We brought Robin from second division relegated team Arminia Bielefeld a little over a year ago because we were convinced of his quality and potential," BMG sporting director Roland Virkus noted in a statement. "He has repaid this trust in full. The new long-term contract is an expression of his development and a clear signal of how comfortable Robin feels at Borussia.”
