Second-division soccer club Dynamo Dresden has pulled off a major transfer coup by signing Thomas Keller. After a six-month loan, the 26-year-old center back is now making a permanent move from Bundesliga relegation team 1. FC Heidenheim to Dresden, as the Saxon club announced. Both teams have agreed not to disclose the terms of the transfer. Dynamo generally does not provide details on contract lengths.
“Thomas has shown over the past few months what qualities he brings to the table, both as a player and as a person. He fully identifies with Dynamo Dresden, always puts the team first, and has exactly the mentality we need and want to see here with us,” said Dynamo sporting director Sören Gonther in a club statement.
