AHL Holmström: The missing piece of the puzzle for the FCM in the promotion battle!

Magdeburg, Deutschland - Magdeburg/Dur - The 1. FC Magdeburg has a new star in the ranks: Alexander Ahl Holmström! The 25-year-old Swede was officially signed on Tuesday, but the fans have to be patient, because his debut in the second half of the 2nd Bundesliga is only imminent. But don't worry, the striker will soon be involved in the FCM!

coach Christian Titz unveiled the plans for the newcomer on the edge of the test game against Hannover 96 (2: 2). "After a long season, he is now on vacation," said Titz. Ahl Holmström has already had a complete season in Sweden, and the recovery is now a top priority. But in December it gets serious: "We bring him to us before the Christmas break and integrate him into the training area," announced Titz. The coach plans to slowly build it up in mid -December so that he can start training fit in January.

The search for the perfect striker

The commitment of AHL Holmström was a long -awaited request from the FCM. The transfer failed in the summer, and the club started the season without a massive center forward. "Game types don't just run around freely," said Titz. But the first half of the season has been successful, and now the trainer hopes for more variability in the squad through Ahl Holmström. "With its size and header, he can prevail, but also has a good speed," praised Titz. The newcomer could be the lack of puzzle to raise the FCM's offensive to a new level.

The tactical possibilities that Ahl Holmström will offer to the team are promising. But what effects that will have on the current top striker Martijn Kaars remains to be seen. "This is all the future music," says Titz. However, it is clear: from mid -January it will be serious and the fans can be curious to see how the new attacker will fit into the team!
