2. Bundesliga - EM-Participant Siwsiwadse: Remain "at 90 Percent" at KSC
EM-Participant Budu Siwsiwadse is likely to also play for Karlsruher SC in the upcoming football league season. "I don't know what else will happen, but I'll be in Karlsruhe 90% of the time," the striker told the "Badische Neuesten Nachrichten."
Siwsiwadse surprised everyone with the Georgian national team at the EM this summer, making it to the round of 16. In total, the 30-year-old appeared in two substitute appearances during the tournament. He rejoined KSC training on a Wednesday.
Karlsruhe's sports director Sebastian Freis had recently indicated that he expected Siwsiwadse to stay at Wildpark. Siwsiwadse scored twelve league goals for KSC in the previous season. His contract runs until June 30, 2025. Since Igor Matanovic returned from his loan to Eintracht Frankfurt, Siwsiwadse could become even more important in the Baden offense.
- budu Siwsiwadse has expressed his intent to spend a significant portion of his time in the city of Karlsruhe, which is known for being the home of Karlsruher SC, a prominent club in the Second Bundesliga based in Baden-Württemberg.
- Last season, Siwsiwadse demonstrated his prowess in soccer by scoring twelve goals for Karlsruher SC in the league, contributing significantly to the team's performance.
- As the new football league season approaches, Karlsruher SC fans are eagerly anticipating the presence of EM-Participant Budu Siwsiwadse on the field, as he is set to don the colors of the Karlsruher SC once again, following his impressive performance with the Georgian national team during the recent European Championships.
- Siwsiwadse's impact on Karlsruher SC's offense could potentially be amplified in the upcoming season, given the return of Igor Matanovic from his loan to Eintracht Frankfurt, which might create additional opportunities for Siwsiwadse to shine on the pitch, as Karlsruher SC competes in the Second Bundesliga, with aspirations to one day return to the Football-Bundesliga.
