Former second division star Selim Gündüz signs with Türk Gücü Friedberg!

Türk Gücü Friedberg is causing a stir in the Hessen Football League. The club has signed a new player, Selim Gündüz, whose past in the second division makes many people nostalgic. Gündüz has signed a contract and brings with him an impressive range of experience.

The 29-year-old can look back on 53 appearances and 4 goals in the 2nd Bundesliga, where he played for VfL Bochum and SV Darmstadt 98, among others. Most recently he was active at Türkspor Dortmund in the Regionalliga West, where he also demonstrated his skills. After discussions with those responsible at Türk Gücü Friedberg, Gündüz appears extremely motivated for the challenges ahead. According to fnp.de he is confident that he will fit into the team and give this new stage of his career a positive turn.

A career marked by injuries

As promising as Selim Gündüz's career started, it was also marked by a series of injuries. In the 2021/2022 season, despite all adversity, he managed to play 16 games for Alemannia Aachen and quickly became a crowd favorite there. These achievements are even more remarkable when you consider that Gündüz only made 14 appearances in the 3rd division and 65 in the regional league before moving to his new club.

Injuries are a constant companion in professional football, and the reasons for this are varied. The high pace and short breaks in the game play mean that players often have to play several matches in a short period of time. According to [fussballfieber.de](https://www.fussballfieber.de/p/rp22m8/pechvoegel-fussballer-die-im-laufe-ihrer-karriere-mit-vielen- reisen-zu), professionals are out on average twice a season. This problem not only affects Gündüz, but also many other players who, despite their enormous talent, often struggle with bad luck with injuries.

A good hand for the future?

The signing of Gündüz shows that Türk Gücü Friedberg has a good hand when it comes to signing talented and experienced players. For a club that is constantly looking for improvement, Gündüz could provide the necessary impetus to climb further up the Hessenliga.

Clubs like Türk Gücü Friedberg know they have to survive in a highly competitive environment and signing a former second division player could prove to be an absolute stroke of luck. It remains to be seen whether Gündüz will be able to recover his body from the strain of his injury and get started at his new club. But he himself is optimistic about the future and is ready to take on new challenges.
