According to the report, the capital club prevailed against four clubs that will start in the Bundesliga next season. Both 1. FC Köln, Mainz 05 and promoted Schalke 04 were interested – there were even concrete talks with VfL Bochum. In the end, Haberer’s former club (played on loan at VfL in 2015/16) lost out because Haberer will start a new chapter with the “Iron”.

Union is thus continuing its own tactics on the transfer market of obliging established professionals at no cost. After eight free transfers in the 2021/22 season, Haberer is the second for the coming season after Fürth’s Paul Seguin (27) (of all transfers in recent years).

Union will be the fifth club in the German professional leagues for the Freiburg player after SpVgg Unterhaching, TSG Hoffenheim, Bochum and Freiburg. Haberer made 169 appearances in six years for the fifth-placed Bundesliga team and was directly involved in 29 goals (13 goals/16 assists).
