After Dresden loan: VfL Osnabrück signs Christian Conteh

After Dresden loan

Second division promoted VfL Osnabrück has committed Christian Conteh. The 23-year-old arrives on a free transfer after his contract with Feyenoord Rotterdam was terminated. Until the end he played on loan for SG Dynamo Dresden in the 3rd division. For Conteh, the lilac-whites are the third station in the 2nd Bundesliga, in which he played a total of eleven games (two goals/one assist) for FC St. Pauli and SV Sandhausen.

“In Christian Conteh we are getting a player who will make our offensive game even more unpredictable. He has a very good pace and is always courageous in one-on-one situations. He drew attention to himself as a young professional at FC St. Pauli and recently had a very good season at Dynamo Dresden,” said VfL sporting director Amir Shapourzadeh about the eighth signing. They are “very happy that Christian has chosen our path and VfL despite other offers and options. Here we want to offer him the platform to develop as a player and as a personality.”

Conteh, whose brother Sirlord plays for league rivals SC Paderborn, said: “The VfL managers really tried hard for me and gave me the feeling that they were counting on me and my strengths. That really convinced me, which is why I decided to join VfL despite requests from other clubs and I’m happy to be here.”
