Eintracht Braunschweig brings defensive talent Louis Breunig from Regensburg!

Eintracht Braunschweig has landed a new central defender. Louis Breunig is moving from SSV Jahn Regensburg to the Lions and will use his skills to strengthen Braunschweig's defense. The 21-year-old player has a contract until June 30, 2028, which also includes an extension option. At 1.88 meters tall, he is ideally equipped to create order in the defensive center. Breunig has arrived at the training camp in St. Johann in Tirol and is already looking forward to his new club. “I’m looking forward to settling in here and using my time in the training camp,” he said confidently. According to eintracht.com, the new challenge enables him to continue his sporting path in the 2nd Bundesliga.

Breunig, who began his football training at SpVgg Greuther Fürth and later gained attention at the Würzburger Kickers in the U17, has already gained experience in the 2nd Bundesliga. After a move to 1. FC Nürnberg and a subsequent loan deal to Regensburg, which resulted in a permanent commitment, he played a total of 27 games in the 2nd Bundesliga and 51 games in the 3rd league. Last season, until he was injured, he was on the pitch throughout and played over 90 minutes in all games. An impressive track record that convinced those responsible at Eintracht Braunschweig.

A targeted transfer

The Braunschweigers deliberately looked for a left-footed player to complement their central defense and create more flexibility in their build-up play. Sports director Benjamin Kessel makes it clear that Breunig meets the desired requirements with his characteristics – a strong left foot, speed and basic defensive aggression. “He fits into the team perfectly not only in terms of football, but also as a person,” emphasizes Kessel and has high hopes for the new addition. In addition, the club recently signed Frederik Jäkel from RB Leipzig, which will strengthen the defense with a breath of fresh air and give the team a solid basis for the coming season, as zeit.de reports.

Given the current transfer situation, it can be seen that the 2nd Bundesliga is experiencing a lot of activity. A total of 213 additions were recorded in the current transfer period, while 203 departures were reported. The transfer expenses amount to around 19.75 million euros, while the transfer income amounts to 67.35 million euros. This shows that the clubs are not only concerned with building up their squad, but also with staying financially up to date. The average market value of the additions is currently 11.03 million euros, which underlines the attractiveness of the league. You can also read about this on transfermarkt.de.
