Wacker Burghausen brings Darmstadt talent Crößmann for the defense!
News from the Bavarian Regional League: SV Wacker Burghausen has secured the services of promising defensive talent Elias Crößmann. The 18-year-old is moving from SV Darmstadt 98 and has signed a contract that runs until the summer of 2027. Crößmann is positive about his new challenges and at the same time thanks his previous club. This change is an important step in Wacker Burghausen's integration strategy, which aims to promote young talent, as innsalzach24.de reports.
Last season, Crößmann made 23 appearances in the men's Hessen league for SV Darmstadt's U21s and also trained regularly with the professional team. His previous experience includes 15 appearances in the U17 Bundesliga and 14 in the A-Juniors Hessenliga. Managing director Andreas Huber emphasizes the physical presence and potential of the new addition. It seems as if Wacker's strategy of relying on young legs could be fruitful, while Crößmann will wear the number 4 shirt, which underlines his central role in the defense.
Wacker Burghausen's start to training
An overview of the Burghausen team's return to training also shows that the club was back on the pitch on May 1, 2021 for the first time after a month-long break. Training for players, coaches and officials was reorganized under strict hygiene concepts. This decision was made possible by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Interior, as chiemgau24.de highlights.
Coach Leo Haas has big plans for his team, especially when it comes to the League Cup. With winter newcomers such as Maxi Reiter, Markus Schöller and Johannes Kraus as well as the promotion of U19 players to the men's team, Wacker Burghausen is aiming to play a good role in the League Cup. The winner gets the chance to take part in the DFB Cup main round, which is a significant motivation for the club.
A look at the league's talent
Numerous talents show their potential in the Bavarian Regional League, which is one of the strongest fourth leagues in Germany. After a quarter of the season, the table stabilizes. Players like Nestory Irankunda (Bayern Amateurs) and Daniel Kasper (SpVgg Greuther Fürth II) stand out, with Kasper having scored nine goals in just six appearances. Simon Pichlmeier, who moved from FC Ingolstadt's U19 team as a defensive talent and has already earned a regular place, is also highly praised in the league, as fupa.net reports.
Wacker Burghausen is not only actively looking for reinforcements, but is also part of a larger network of young players who all have the goal of gaining a foothold in professional football. The coming months will show how these new constellations will affect the team's performance and the league as a whole.
