Dresden's home game against Bayern II was canceled - for TSV 1860 the chance to climb to first place with a home win against Zwickau.
Not for Sunday, but Keanu Staude, 24, is planned for the further promotion fight.
Coach Michael Köllner hopes for a win-win situation: “He is an individualist like Timo Gebhart.
He has solutions that are not in the textbook. "
Neulöwe Staude: Stephan Salger recommended his former Arminia teammate.
In 2018, he involuntarily caused a YouTube hit.
Köllner looks at Staude after his youthful sin: "For me it is decisive: What is he doing in my cabin?"
Behind
Stephan Salger
is undoubtedly the person most successful week, joined since the defender before the season TSV 1860th
At the 3-0 win in Magdeburg, Salger was the best man on the pitch,
guaranteed zero, goalscorer and two-time preparer
.
Yesterday the 31-year-old was able
to attach
his first
player transfer to his lapel
.
The fact that Keanu Staude, 24, strengthens the Löwen squad is also thanks to Salger, who played
with the attacker at Arminia Bielefeld
(2016 to 2020).
"It is normal to find out more before such a transfer," said 1860 coach Michael Köllner: "Stephan Salger was of course my first point of contact."
First and foremost, however, Köllner
relied on his gut instinct
- and on a
“long phone call”
with the former Bielefeld native.
That was all the more important as Staude caught up with his past in the days of the transfer initiation.
Not the sporty one, which is definitely presentable:
86 second division games for Arminia
(six goals),
promotion to the Bundesliga, two international matches for the German U20s
.
What is meant is his suitability as a team player, about which doubts arose on social media after a video that was not very beneficial for Staude spread there.
Strictly speaking, this video is a phone call from May 2018, made with a friend from yesteryear (“brother”), an
involuntary YouTube hit
,
clicked
almost
106,000
times
and teased with the words: “!!!
SCANDAL!!!
Keanu Staude gossips about his own teammates "
Köllner, who is at home in all forums, knows this video of course.
In Nuremberg at that time it caused "a few
laughs in the cabin
".
Staude's old and new team-mate Salger also appears in the 90-second feature (“Salgi babbles me full”), but based on Staude: “What do you actually want, hey?” In any case, the lions are
determined to give the thwarted talent a new chance to give
, after his contract had been dissolved at Kickers Würzburg earlier this month.
Köllner's brief opinion on the character question: “I'm not interested in what was two or three years ago.
For me it is crucial: What is he doing in my cabin? ”
His impression is:“ This is
a boy who needs good company
.
That's why I think that he will suit us. "

Sporty anyway.
The advantages that Staude brings remind Köllner of
Timo Gebhart
, who left the Löwen before the season started.
“Keanu is the type of player who can do things that we don't have right now.
He has
solutions that are not in the textbook
.
If you run up against a block like you did against Meppen (1: 1), that's particularly important. "It feels like a complete second half of the season is before 1860."
A player with such a technical ability is simply good for us,
"says Köllner:" If we If he works well with him and he treats us well, it can be a
win-win situation
. ”Even more:“ He's a player who can go through the roof. ”For the time being, until the end of the season, the lions have each other Staudes services secured.
After that, according to
sports director Günther Gorenzel
, “there are several options that we have anchored in the contract”.
Staude is not yet planned for the home game against Zwickau.
But in 1860
Sascha Mölders
has again
, who has been
suspended
after having been
suspended.
"We are happy when our well-rested captain will make the lawn glow,"
said Köllner: "We need Sascha's presence in the game - and his qualities as a goal scorer."
