At Darmstadt 98 Patric Pfeiffer blossomed into one of the best central defenders in the 2nd Bundesliga. The expiring contract of the 23-year-old logically calls a whole series of Bundesliga clubs onto the scene. Both FC Schalke 04, Eintracht Frankfurt and 1. FC Köln were last traded. Now the native of Hamburg has apparently found another club.

On Friday, Patric Pfeiffer wants to make it clear with the lilies that he will be promoted to the Bundesliga – probably the best possible farewell to the southern Hesse team for the tall central defender. Because: The contract of the former HSV professional expires in the summer. It has been clear for several months that he will not extend his working paper in Darmstadt.

Where the 23-year-old is going was unclear for a long time. But now there are increasing signs that Pfeiffer will continue his career at FC Augsburg in the coming season. According to “Sky” transfer expert Florian Plettenberg, there is a basic agreement between the two parties.

This report coincides with information from “Transfermarkt.de”. However, the online portal claims to have learned that the native of Hamburg has also reached an agreement with another Bundesliga club that has not been named. A contract has not yet been signed.

According to Plettenberg, Pfeiffer has a contract in Fuggerstadt until 2027. A bonus has already been negotiated. The transfer is not yet 100 percent fixed. If the reports are confirmed, some well-known Bundesliga clubs will go away empty-handed when trying to win Lillien’s defense chief.

A move to FC Schalke 04 was already in the air in January. In addition to the Knappen, 1. FC Köln, Eintracht Frankfurt, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim and FSV Mainz 05 were also recently traded as possible buyers.
