From summer: Marseiler becomes a Lily
The Lilies have strengthened themselves with an offensive player: Luca Marseiler, currently the third division with Viktoria Köln, will play for SV Darmstadt 98 from the new season.
Paul Fernie: „Luca Marseiler has the necessary greed and passion that we want to see. He sees the new league as a great opportunity for himself and wants to prove himself, it’s exactly this fire and motivation that we need. We are happy that he is decided in favor of us despite other offers and we absolutely trust him to help us in the second division.“
Torsten Lieberknecht: „We appreciate Luca’s creativity, his technique and his one-on-one skills. He also demonstrated his goal threat and his grit in Köln. Ultimately, he took the detour via the 3rd league and was there „His performance has attracted the attention of higher-class clubs. I am confident that with his variable position profile he will be a valuable piece of the puzzle for our squad.“
Luca Marseiler: „I’m really looking forward to getting started with Darmstadt in preparation and then getting to know my new teammates. The club’s overall development in the recent past is impressive; good work has been done here for many years. Those in charge have „They put a lot of effort into me in Darmstadt and showed me a clear concept of how they see my role and want to approach the coming season.“
The 27-year-old was trained in the youth ranks of Bayern Munich and SpVgg Unterhaching. The Munich native spent a total of six years for Unterhaching in the men’s division before Marseiler moved to SC Paderborn in 2021 and from there was loaned to Viktoria Köln. After a loan season in 2021/22, Köln signed him permanently. For Viktoria, Marseiler has scored 13 goals and prepared nine goals in 32 third division games so far this season.
