No need for action at the back left

By extending with casting team, whose contract is now running after activating the operational option until June 2023, there is no compelling need for action on the left-back position at Union for the new season. At least the FCU has given the two planned posts according to the current state, as in addition to casting man also Tymoteusz Puchacz has a contract for the coming season. The Polish international has been awarded to the Turkish league leader Trabzonspor since mid-January. It is provided that Puchacz plays again from summer in Köpenick to enforce it in the second attempt.

Union had committed the 23-year-old last year to the basic decline of 2.5 million euros from Lech Pozen. In the first round, Puchacz, who revealed his offensive potential, revealed but also defensive weaknesses, do not convince with the iron. In competition with castle man and the end of August, Bastian OCCIPKA had Puchacz to look. In the Bundesliga and in the DFB Cup, coach Fischer OCCIPKA gave the trust, especially the castle man. Only in the Europa Conference League Puchacz received operating times.
