SC Freiburg has extended the contract of its Swiss defender by another eight years, ensuring that he will remain with the club until at least 2028.
The player, who joined SC Freiburg in 2016, has made over 50 appearances for the club so far and has been a key part of their defense. The extension of his contract is seen as a boost for the team, which is looking to strengthen its defense going into next season.
Head coach Markus Gisdol said of the signing: "We're very happy to have secured the services of this player. He brings a lot of experience and quality to our squad and we're confident that he'll be able to help us achieve our goals."
With the signing, SC Freiburg now has a strong defensive unit, with experienced players like the defender and central defenders providing cover for the backline.
The signing also comes after the departure of another important player from the club, midfielder Benjamin Kehl, who signed for Bayern Munich on a free transfer last week.
Overall, the signing of the defender is a positive move for SC Freiburg, and they hope it will help them secure a successful season ahead.
