The new man will wear the number 17 jersey with the infamous red hoop. This season, the 23-year-old winger made six Bundesliga appearances for Augsburg, with whom he was previously active in the club’s U17, U19 and reserve teams.

Following his footballing education in Augsburg, he gathered some important experience in Kaiserslautern and Regensburg. This season he confirmed the quality he possesses in the Bundesliga. He is a technically gifted attacking player, who we’ve had an eye on for some time. I firmly believe he will quickly take the next step in his development with us and that he can be a very sensible boost to our squad."
