Overview
- Füchse Berlin announced on Thursday that 20-year-old Tim Schröder will join the first team on a two-year professional contract beginning in summer 2027.
- The club plans for Schröder to take the pivot (Kreisläufer) spot left by captain Max Darj and to form the pivot trio with Frederik Simak and incoming Théo Monar.
- Schröder is a Berlin native who rose through the Füchse academy, won the 2025 U19 World Championship with Germany, and has spent two seasons on loan at cooperation partner 1. VfL Potsdam in the 2. Bundesliga.
- Füchse CEO Bob Hanning and coach‑sporting director Nicolej Krickau described the move as a continuation of the club’s long-term youth-development policy and said Schröder’s Potsdam experience proved his offensive readiness for higher weekly demands.
- The promotion formalizes a broader roster turnover — with Darj and Mijajlo Marsenic leaving at season’s end — and will test the club’s pipeline as Schröder adapts to consistent Bundesliga play and the team finalizes other positions.
