The top goal scorer of the 2. Bundesliga team, Fortuna Düsseldorf, Christos Tzolis, will continue playing for the club. The team made this announcement on Thursday, stating that they have chosen to purchase the player from Norwich City, who previously kept him on loan.

However, during his latest match against VfL Bochum on Monday, he couldn't help the team advance to the Bundesliga following a loss.
In a statement by the team's Sports Director, Klaus Allofs, it was emphasized that "this is a good moment for Fortuna, but without getting too carried away." He explained that the deal struck a year ago could only be sealed with certain limitations. Therefore, an exit clause was set up that would permit the player to transfer to another team during the current transfer period under particular circumstances.
