National player Nadiem Amiri from FSV Mainz 05 left his future with the Bundesliga club after qualifying for the playoffs of the Conference League.
“I’m going on vacation now and then we’ll watch,” said the 28-year-old after the 2-2 on the last matchday against Bayer Leverkusen.
With the draw in the duel with Amiri’s ex-club, the Mainz secured participation in the European Cup for the first time in nine years. He was “just overjoyed,” said Amiri. After the game, the tears even flowed with him when he had his son in his arms. “I am built very close to the water.”
Amiri, as the clock in midfield, has a huge share of the move in the Mainz into the Conference League after moving to Mainz as a Leverkusen bank press in early 2024.
At that time it “none” talked about him, said Amiri, who was nominated for the German national soccer team in March after almost four and a half years and has a contract in Mainz until summer 2028.
