New team, new hope: Lok Leipzig starts season preparation!

The association started preparing for the new regional league season on June 24, 2025 and brings a breath of fresh air to the team. The focus is particularly on the four new players who have joined the club: David Grözinger (26), who comes from the BFC, Arne Rühlemann (20), the talented young player from Luckenwalde, Jonas Arcalean (28) from Walldorf and 18-year-old Hugo Eichler, an owner from the club academy. These reinforcements were necessary to make the team well for the upcoming challenges.

In addition, there are also two test players in training: Oskar Preil (20) from Regensburg and Rilind Kabashi (22) from Kaiserslautern. The two could expand the squad if they take their chance. The situation around goalkeeper Niclas Müller and Nico Rieger, who continue to train with the team, is particularly exciting. Tobias Dombrowa is due to foot problems in the individual training session, whereas Linus Zimmer is optimistic after passing his return-to-sports test.

team dynamics and changes
