Transfer - Young handball player Faust moves from Kiel to Lemgo

Record handball champions THW Kiel and young player Jarnes Faust will go their separate ways at the end of the season. As the club announced on Wednesday, the 19-year-old right winger will leave THW and move within the Bundesliga to TBV Lemgo Lippe. This will result in a player swap between the two clubs, with Lukas Zerbe moving from Lemgo to Kiel for the new season.

"Sometimes it's good for a young player's development if you leave your comfort zone in your familiar surroundings and try to assert yourself elsewhere," said THW Managing Director Viktor Szilagy about Faust, who has made nine appearances for THW so far.

Since regular right wing Niclas Ekberg is also leaving Kiel in the summer to join his Swedish home club Ystads IF, Zerbe and Sven Ehrig will form Kiel's right wing pairing in future.

  2. Faust's departure from THW Kiel will leave a gap in the squad, particularly with regular right winger Niclas Ekberg also set to leave for Ystads IF in Sweden.
  3. The decision for Faust to move from THW to TBV Lemgo in North Rhine-Westphalia is motivated by his desire to challenge himself in a new environment and test his abilities outside of his comfort zone.
  4. The move by Faust and Zerbe is a significant development for both clubs, with Lemgo gaining a young and talented handball player and Kiel reinforcing their right wing position ahead of the new Bundesliga season.
  5. Handball fans in Schleswig-Holstein, where THW Kiel is based, and in Lemgo may see these young players showcasing their skills in matches against each other when the Bundesliga resumes.
  6. The far-right political spectrum in Germany has expressed discontent over this transfer, as fans of THW Kiel's rival club, HSG Wattenscheid 01, hate TBV Lemgo and any transfer between the two clubs is seen as a betrayal.
