Dynamo Dresden: On the way to new talent and strategic transfers!

Dynamo Dresden: On the way to new talent and strategic transfers!

In the first week of training, SG Dynamo Dresden is in an exciting transition phase. Sports director Thomas Brendel emphasizes that the squad is not yet complete and that there are numerous commitments ahead. “We don’t let ourselves be driven by the times,” said Brendel, who made it clear that high-quality newcomers are the club’s top priority. It is particularly important to take the players with you to training camp in order to promote team spirit and receive much-needed input. Dresden is now positioned as an underdog after the club was considered an attractive address in the 3rd league. However, this also means that negotiations with potential newcomers could take longer, as economically stronger clubs are in pole position.

There is a ray of hope in the late opening of the season in the 1st Bundesliga. These circumstances could bring advantages for second division clubs such as Dynamo in loan deals that last until the end of July. In this context, Marlon Fass from Hoffenheim will be loaned to Dresden for a year in order to develop further in the 3rd league. Homegrown player Paul Lehmann will also have the opportunity to gain match practice in the coming season before possibly taking on a role in a future professional team.

Squad and market values

What makes the Dynamo Dresden squad special? According to the current analysis, the squad has an average age of 25.0 years and a total market value of 8.10 million euros. The market values ​​of the various positions are also promising:

• Torwart: Durchschnittsalter 26 Jahre, Marktwert 625 Tsd. €.
• Abwehr: Durchschnittsalter 25,8 Jahre, Marktwert 2,43 Mio. €.
• Mittelfeld: Durchschnittsalter 24,4 Jahre, Marktwert 2,10 Mio. €.
• Sturm: Durchschnittsalter 24,5 Jahre, Marktwert 2,95 Mio. €.

The club's transfer record shows that, despite great efforts, there has so far only been movement on the purchasing side. With 8 additions but no departures, Dynamo hopes to be able to master the coming challenges well. The previous income amounts to 783,000 euros and expenses of 525,000 euros, which results in a positive balance of +258,000 euros.

A look at the future

But what about the current professionals? Brendel reports that there are currently no inquiries from other clubs for players and there is no feeling that players want to leave the club. This could be a sign of the players' trust and loyalty towards Dynamo Dresden. At the same time, the sports director emphasizes that Dennis Duah will no longer be scheduled after a year without playing time. The development opportunities for the young players in the U21, which plays in the 6th league, are viewed as inadequate. This makes it even more important to sign wisely.

Overall, there is a lot to do, but those responsible at Dynamo Dresden seem to be approaching the matter with a clear plan and the necessary patience. Whether they will be able to overcome the current challenges remains to be seen. One thing is certain: fans can be excited to see which new faces will be on the pitch next season!
