Contract duration: Foxes pledge allegiance to Gröndahl in Norway, up until 2028
Fuchse Berlin's Stellar Reinforcement
(Germany's Top Handball Club Shakes Things Up)
Berlin (dpa) - Sizing up for the upcoming season, Fuchse Berlin prepares to solidify their defense with the signing of Tobias Grondahl from Denmark's elite club, GOG Handbold. Due to Paul Drux's unfortunate career-ending injury, the team snagged the Norwegian talent, who penned a contract until 2028. Rumors swirl that the transfer fee, though undisclosed, was reportedly one of the priciest in Danish handball history[2].
The prolific 24-year-old, hailing from Norway, debuted at 19 with the Norwegian national team and has tallied 160 goals from 52 matches since then. After shining with Elverum Handball, Grondahl made a move to Denmark last season.
Grondahl expressed his excitement to join the talented roster of Fuchse Berlin, showcasing the likes of Mathias Gidsel, Lasse Andersson, and more. He looks forward to beefing up the Scandinavian influence within the ranks, which includes Max Darj, Valter Chritz (injured), and two Swedes on the squad. Surprisingly, Hakun West av Teigum from the Faroe Islands, though not technically Scandinavian, also plays for the team.
[2] According to Sportbladet, the transfer fee for Grondahl’s move to Füchse Berlin was approximately €500,000, marking one of the most expensive transfers in Danish handball history.
In the upcoming season, Fuchse Berlin aims to bolster their team with the addition of Tobias Grondahl, a Norwegian footballer renowned for his skills in the Champions League and various European leagues. The Norwegian star, known for his distinct contributions to Elverum Handball and the Norwegian national team, will join forces with established players like Mathias Gidsel and Lasse Andersson in Berlin, further strengthening their Scandinavian influence.
