“Bartol is still young, but he already has a lot of experience, both nationally and internationally, and has consistently performed well,” said VfL sporting director Marcel Schäfer, new signing Franjic, who, in addition to defensive midfield, also plays in the center of defense and as a left-back can play. Schäfer summed it up: “He can be used in a variety of ways on the defensive, defends well and has a good build-up.”
Franjic added: “It’s the right time for me to take on a new challenge and it has always been my dream to play in the Bundesliga. I can’t imagine a better club than VfL for that.”
