The prodigal son returns, the whole family will be at the stadium and he has to hurt his former love of all people!
The return of Hertha attacker Marco Richter (24) to Augsburg on Saturday (3.30 p.m., Sky and in the BZ live ticker) – it could not be more explosive.
The Berliners are up to their necks in water, 17th place, staying up is becoming increasingly difficult. And now, of all times, judge Hertha should shoot for victory. Coach Felix Magath (68) calls for more offensive spirit, more power in the game up front and more support for striker Ishak Belfodil (30). That’s why Richter will probably be in the starting XI in his home country.
Magic-Magath knows Richter wants everyone to see it!
From 2013 to the summer of 2021, the lively street soccer player played in Augsburg, where he became a U21 national player and also took part in the 2021 Olympic Games. Then his move to Berlin before the season for 7 million euros.

If he was a real reinforcement in the first half of the season, scoring five goals and preparing another one, he weakened in the second half of the season. No goal, most recently only on the bench – Richter was in a low.
Now the turn!
Magath and assistant Mark Fotheringam (38) know how important Richter can be in the relegation battle, so they encourage him in every training session and push him.
Hopefully Marco Richter can now deliver in Augsburg and shoot Hertha out of the basement!
