Ten years ago, the captain of SV Darmstadt 98 began to write his chapter in the Lily story – on July 1st, 2014. From the Olympic Stadium in Berlin to the Merck Stadium at the Böllenfalltor. What initially began as a one-year loan in Darmstadt has long since become a love affair. A native of Berlin in southern Hesse: Fabian Holland. Since July 5th, the now 34-year-old has been a Lily - and is still loyal to his employer in southern Hesse to this day. In total, the defensive player with the captain's armband played 296 competitive games for SV 98, scoring seven goals and being promoted to the 1st Bundesliga twice with Darmstadt 98. Together with you, on the occasion of its tenth anniversary, we will take a look at Holland's journey with the Lilies.
The seventh newcomer for the 2024/25 season is central defender Aleksandar Vukotic.

The eighth newcomer for the 2024/25 season is midfielder Merveille Papela. The 23-year-old is moving from Bundesliga club 1. FSV Mainz 05 to Darmstadt and brings first and second division experience with him to the Bölle. We took a closer look at our new midfielder and would like to introduce you to Merveille.
