FC St. Pauli starts with hope in Bundesliga preparation!

Norderstedt, Deutschland - On July 3, 2025, FC St. Pauli started preparing for the new Bundesliga season 2025/2026. Coach Alexander Blessin gave the starting shot on Thursday and welcomed some newcomers to the team. But there are still plenty of construction sites, especially on the offensive and on the position of the left -back. In less than two months, on August 22nd or 23rd, the first Bundesliga game against Borussia Dortmund is coming up.

Another highlight will be the city derby against HSV in the Volksparkstadion a week later. Before that, the Kiez kickers have to compete with Eintracht Norderstedt in the first round of the DFB Cup after an exchange of home. At the start of the test game series, the team will go to Aurich on Sunday, where she meets GW Firrel at 4 p.m.

The newcomers and personal details

Along with the start of training, sports director Andreas Bornemann must now actively strengthen the team. After the loss of important top performers such as Morgan Guilavogui, Elias Saad, Philipp Treu, Noah Weißhaupt and Sieben van der Heyden, the club had to cope with some exits. While Ricky-Jade Jones was brought as a striker by Peterborough United, he is not regarded as the solution to the storm problems.

A ray of hope could be the new player Mathias Pereira's location on the left wing that should bring a breath of fresh air to the offensive. The 23-year-old midfielder, who comes from VV St. Truid, could also play an important role. In addition, the chances are good that the association may have to commit further Japanese new additions.

The current squad of FC St. Pauli

The expected squad of FC St. Pauli for the coming season covers 22 players whose average age is 25.6 years. The overall market value of the squad amounts to around 36.88 million euros. Here is an overview of the squaddails by positions:

Although the offensive was a weak point last season, the hope that the new players will be willing to ignore the necessary fire. However, the financial prospects for the coming season are stable: FC St. Pauli records a transfer record of ± 0 euros, with just a transfer of 0 euros. Finally there was also a judicial investigation into Josef Ollig, whose outcome is still pending.

How the Squad of FC St. Pauli will develop further and whether the new players can master the challenges remains to be seen. The first test games and the subsequent training camp in Flachau, Austria, from July 18 to 27, will be decisive indicators. Until then, only one thing remains for the fans: watch what happens in the neighborhood.
