Ribéry stays with Salernitana
Farewell postponed: Long-time Bayern professional Franck Ribéry will play for US Salernitana in the Italian Serie A again next season.
“He can plan with the automatic contract renewal.
He also wants to play next season," Salernitana's sports director Walter Sabatini told the daily La Repubblica.
The 39-year-old Frenchman has been with the southern Italians since the beginning of last season but his record is disappointing: he has not scored and provided just three assists.
Didavi leaves VfB
Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart and offensive player Daniel Didavi go their separate ways.
According to a statement from VfB, the expiring contract with the 32-year-old will not be extended.
Didavi joined VfB in 1997.
He has spent nine of his twelve professional years in Stuttgart, for which he has played 152 competitive games (31 goals).
He was also active for 1. FC Nürnberg and two seasons at VfL Wolfsburg.
Goalkeeper Meyer changes to BVB
The move from goalkeeper Alexander Meyer from Regensburg to Borussia Dortmund is perfect.
As announced by BVB, the 31-year-old has signed a contract until June 30, 2024. »Alexander Meyer convinced us both as a player and as a person.
In him we get a very experienced goalkeeper who exudes calm.
He was undoubtedly one of the strongest goalkeepers in the 2nd Bundesliga in recent years," said the designated BVB sports director Sebastian Kehl about the previous goalkeeper of SSV Jahn Regensburg.
After the departures of Roman Bürki (St. Louis) and Marwin Hitz (Basel), BVB was looking for a new second goalkeeper behind regular Gregor Kobel.

Dortmund on City Talent
According to media reports, another commitment is imminent for Dortmund.
According to this, winger Jayden Braaf from Manchester City should play for the second in the Bundesliga in the future.
After Jadon Sancho, who switched to Manchester United last summer, and Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, the 19-year-old Dutchman would be the third young professional signed by BVB from the Skyblues talent factory.
Trained in Amsterdam and Eindhoven, Braaf was last loaned to Udinese Calcio.
Magath's successor is said to be certain
Sandro Schwarz is to become the new coach of Hertha BSC.
As the »kicker« reported, the capital club should agree with the 43-year-old.
Schwarz, who is still contesting the Russian Cup final with Dynamo Moscow on Sunday afternoon, is said to be terminating his contract there, which runs until 2024.
Schwarz would follow Felix Magath, who had only secured relegation with Hertha in the relegation against second division Hamburger SV last season.
Before his time at Dynamo, which he most recently led to third place in the Russian league, he coached FSV Mainz 05 from 2017 to 2019.
In contrast to his German coaching colleagues Markus Gisdol (Lokomotiv Moscow) and Daniel Farke (FK Krasnodar), Schwarz did not end his commitment when the Russian war of aggression in Ukraine began.
He justified this by saying that he felt responsible for the club.
