Niko Gießelmann (30) is a top performer at Union (19 games this season, 3 goals, 5 assists; plus 6x European Cups, 2x DFB Cup).

His working paper originally ran until 2022. He apparently had a contract that was automatically renewed after a certain number of starts (often around 24).
Gießelmann recovered from Corona just in time. Since Tuesday he has been training again. Nothing stands in the way of his action in Bielefeld on Saturday (3:30 p.m.).
