Johannes Geis is leaving 1. FC Nuremberg, which is restructuring its squad. A transfer of the midfielder was already an issue in the winter.

Already after the end of last season it was clear that FCN was replanning its midfield – and Johannes Geis was on the chopping block! NOW is actually over for the midfielder. The club has announced that the contract with the 30-year-old will be terminated. They have “agreed” to end the collaboration.

Club boss Joti Chatzialexiou has in Picture-YouTube format “Club-Funk” spoke very clearly about Geis’s departure: “We have made a decision, so that we now have a Have a free place on the squad and certain resourcesto be able to use them for other players.” Already at Schalke 04, Geis was recommended by the then coach Domenico Tedesco in the season 2017/18 He was finally eliminated.

FCN-Out: Geis without a club – a transfer was already an issue in winter

The fact is that Johannes Geis was able to convince those responsible for the 1. FC Nuremberg He has not been able to impress with his performances for a long time. And he knew what was coming. In May of this year he explained that a transfer in the winter was already an option: “What happens in the end is something I will decide with my agent. A transfer is always a bit more difficult in the winter.”

The midfielder is now without a clubbut remains calm, as he explains in the club’s official statement: “My goal is to find the right environment to attack again. Fortunately, I have never been seriously injured and am fitter than ever before. That’s why I want to take my time looking for a new club where I can contribute all my experience and strengths.”

Most recently, Coach Miroslav Klose Julian Kania has already been thrown out of the squad. The attacker had not been able to convince the club coach in training. Klose statements were very clear about this. At FCN the reins will be tightened for the coming season.

Club boss needs money for new players

It is no coincidence that FCN sports director Chatzialexiou spoke of “certain resources” that were released with the termination of Geis’ contract. The club still needs new players. And 1. FC Nuremberg is still looking for Experience and fresh wind.

Less experience, but fresh air, the club would like to Marko Mladenovic into the team. The attacking midfielder would be available from Eintracht Frankfurt on a free transfer. Recently, the transfer rumors surrounding the 19-year-old have calmed down a bit.

An alternative with experience inFranken.de brought into discussion weeks ago – Lino TempelmannThe midfielder has already been at the club and knows the club. At Schalke 04 he was completely sidelined. Schalke wants to force the 25-year-old’s transfer. The Ruhrpott club MUST get rid of players. The squad is too full, the costs too high. The chance for FCN to lower the price for Tempelmann. It would be worth considering.
