Steffen Baumgart looked under his black cap dark. “We should draw the lessons from it,” said Union Berlin’s new coach after the next sensitive setback. His team left a matt impression on St. Pauli at 0: 3 (0: 1) – another squad refresher still seems urgently needed during this change period.
The responsible persons led by managing director Horst Heldt are correspondingly active. With winger Filip Kostić, a name is circulating in Köpenick, which is very well known to the Bundesliga. The 32-year-old ex-player of VfB Stuttgart, Hamburger SV and Eintracht Frankfurt could bring a necessary shot of creativity to the team if an obligation. He is currently loaned by Juventus Turin to Fenerbahçe Istanbul.
Without reinforcements and in the constitution on Sunday, Union could still get into need. “We all know that the situation is dangerous,” said Baumgart, who has not yet been able to build up a momentum with a win from four games. He kept covered with the transfer activities. “I would be happy if you have the feeling that we are working on it,” said the 53-year-old, who was already missing the basics in the game on Sunday, which will be needed for a existence in the fight against relegation.
Anthony Modeste apparently has a new club. As the TV broadcaster Sky reports, the striker will sign at the Spanish third division club CF Intercity. Modeste receives a contract until the end of the season and should help the club to stay in the league.
