Stefan Posch signs for Mainz 05: official agreement for €4 million
Stefan Posch has officially signed with Mainz 05 for a fee of €4 million, according to Florian Plettenberg. The Austrian center-back joins from Como.
The move is now official: Austrian defender Stefan Posch has completed his transfer to Mainz 05 for a fee of €4 million, as confirmed by Florian Plettenberg on his Twitter account. The agreement was reached following negotiations with the Italian club Como, where Posch had been playing.
At 29 years old, Posch plays as a center-back and is known for his solidity at the back. His market value stands at €6 million, indicating that Mainz has pulled off a relatively advantageous deal by acquiring him for a lower amount than his current value. This could strengthen Mainz's defense, which is looking to improve its performance in the Bundesliga.
The operation has been finalized after meeting all necessary requirements, including the medical examination currently taking place. Alfredo Pedullà has also confirmed the move, stating that the signing is official. With this, Mainz 05 adds an experienced player who could be key to their ambitions for the season.
In this way, Mainz 05 not only reinforces its defense with a quality player but also demonstrates its ambition to compete in the German league, closing a deal that promises to yield results in the short term.
