Klarer leaves SV 98

Christoph Klarer is moving to Birmingham City FC with immediate effect. In consultation with SV Darmstadt 98, the central defender had already left the Lilien's training camp in Herxheim early on Thursday in order to clarify final formalities and complete medical examinations in England. Both clubs have agreed not to disclose the terms of the transfer.

Paul Fernie: „Christoph informed us of his intentions at an early stage. This fact has also influenced our previous squad planning and decisions in the defensive area. It is our goal to further develop young players and – if the sporting and economic conditions are right – to sell them on if necessary. It was therefore clear to us that we would only let Christoph go if this was accompanied by a transfer surplus. We wish him all the best for his personal and sporting future.

Klarer moved from Fortuna Düsseldorf to the Lilies last summer. In the past season, the Austrian played 30 Bundesliga games and one game in the DFB Cup for SV 98.

Opposition Check: SpVgg Greuther Fürth

It was the sixth matchday of the 2017/18 season, a sunny Sunday in September, and the second division fixture between SpVgg Greuther Fürth and Fortuna Düsseldorf was on the schedule. With Florian Neuhaus, Friedhelm Funkel, and Serdar Dursun on or off the pitch, the duel ended 3-1 for Fürth – thanks in part to a brace from Dursun. At first glance, probably just a typical second division victory. But historically significant and unforgettable for everyone in Fürth.
