Dynamo Dresden gets Grill: Schreiber challenges new goalkeeper!

Dresden, Deutschland - Dynamo Dresden has decided to bring a fresh wind in the goalkeeper area. The club obliges goalkeeper Lennart Grill, which makes the fans and media attract attention. According to Liga2-online , the transfer will be officially announced next week. Grill, most recently awarded by Union Berlin, has only had moderate success and is now facing a new challenge in Dresden.

In the past two years, the 26-year-old has been active at various clubs on loan, including VfL Osnabrück, Eintracht Braunschweig and SpVgg Greuther Fürth. In total, he can look back on 28 missions in the second division. The question remains whether Dresden Grill is firmly committed or only borrowed. Its current market value is 450,000 euros, and it is primarily intended to demand the previous tram goalkeeper Tim Schreiber, who is considered a favorite after a strong season 2024/25.

new competition in the goal

The decision of Dynamo Dresden aims to promote competition and quality in the goal. At the start of the training, sports director Thomas Brendel emphasized that the club is looking for other goalkeepers. In addition to writer and 29-year-old Daniel Mesenhöler, Grill is the first new player to join the squad. "We don't want to leave anything to chance in the goal," said Brendel. Grill's official presentation is planned for Monday; The training starts on Tuesday.

Tim Schreiber, who played 38 games in the 3rd division last year and had only 40 goals conceded, has blossomed to number one. Nevertheless, Grill is under pressure to defend its place in the goal. In recent years, Grill has hardly been able to fight for a regular place at his past clubs, apart from a loan to SK Brann in Norway, where he recorded 15 missions.

The background of the transfer season

The current transfer season is part of a dynamic market in which clubs can borrow, buy or sell players. As Statista , the transfer sums significantly vary. In the Bundesliga, which also includes Dresden, the clubs have a transfer deficit in the 2024/2025 season. Bavaria's record spending of 149 million euros show how intensive the market in the first division is. Despite high investments, however, expenditure does not guarantee sporting success.

Additional tension is in the goalkeeper position at Union Berlin, which is urgently looking for a replacement after Alexander Schwolow's departure. Under the possible new additions, names such as Matthieu Epolo from Standard Liège and Elias Bethke from Energie Cottbus circulate. Dresden, on the other hand, could be well positioned with Lennart Grill and another goalkeeper in the squad for the upcoming challenges.

With the start of Grill, Dynamo Dresden shows that they are ready to prove themselves in the fight for promotion and to bring a breath of fresh air to the team. The fans can look forward to developments in the coming season!
