The Achim native came up through the Werder Bremen and TSV Havelse youth system before eventually kicking professionally for SV Meppen in the 3. Bundesliga. After a successful career in the German lower divisions, Undav moved to Belgium in 2020. The now 26-year-old has 25 Jupiler Pro league goals under his belt.
EPL side Brighton & Hove Albion purchased Undav in the January 2022 transfer window, immediately loaning him back to Belgium's Royale Union Saint-Gilloise for the duration of the season. Since arriving on the Isle on a permanent basis ahead of the current campaign, he has been unable to crack the starting XI and logged just 171 minutes for the Seagulls thus far.
Sky also reports that Brighton are considering another loan-out for their €7 million purchase, going so far as to say that "several" top-tier German sides are interested. The Sky report doesn't offer up any further specifics. Undav - a German of Turkish heritage - has also been linked with Galatasaray Istanbul.
