New coach, new players: Is Joshua Putze coming to Halleschen FC?

The squad planning at Halleschen FC could soon go in a new direction, as a new addition is apparently in the starting blocks. Joshua Putze, previously under contract with Energie Cottbus, was seen as a potential new signing. This is reported by the MZ. The 30-year-old defensive midfielder, who was born in Berlin, has his roots at FC Energie Cottbus and is currently without a new contract after his former club did not extend it.

The player, who can also play as a central midfielder or central defender, struggled with injuries last season and only made ten appearances for Cottbus. However, his experience should not be underestimated: In his career, Putze has played a total of 119 games in the regional league, 37 games in the 3rd league and one second league appearance, which makes him a real leader, as Maximilian Zimmer, the sporting director at FCE, also notes.

One step to Halle?

With Robert Schröder as the new coach of Halleschen FC, the team could use a breath of fresh air. Schröder succeeds Mark Zimmermann and brings with him the hope of getting the team on track in terms of squad planning. A commitment from Putze could also mark the departure of Berk Inaler, whose contract would only be extended in the event of promotion. Inaler is already aiming for a move to the third division.

In the past, Joshua Putze has been recognized not only as a talented player, but also as someone who can provide important impulses in crucial moments. His return to Halle would not only give his career a boost, but also strengthen the HFC's offensive, which is looking for new talent. Another player from Energie Cottbus, Jan Shcherbakovski, was recently discussed, but is about to move to third division promoted team TSV Havelse.

The Way of Joshua Putze

Putze has an eventful history behind him: He started his career in the youth teams of SG Glienick and FC Energie Cottbus, where he played until 2012. After his first professional appearance in the second division at the end of the 2013/14 season, he moved to BFC Dynamo and then to Sportfreunde Lotte before moving to FSV Union Fürstenwalde. There he was able to distinguish himself as a leading player and gained valuable experience that he could now potentially bring to Halle. According to the Niederlausitz Current The situation surrounding Joshua Putze and Halleschen FC is being watched with excitement.

The sporting course can soon be set anew, and if the negotiations between Putze and the HFC are successful, this could represent a whole new chapter in the midfielder's career. Until then, it remains to be seen whether Putze will have the chance to prove himself in Robert Schröder's team and actively support the HFC on its further path.
