Hoffenheim Bolsters Attack: Tim Lemperle Joins Ranks
Lemperle officially joins TSG Hoffenheim squad. - Lemperle moves to TSG Hoffenheim
Get ready, fans! TSG Hoffenheim's sporting director, Andreas Schicker, has announced the signing of Tim Lemperle, a striker who's packing a punch after his impressive stint with 1. FC Köln. The news was met with thunderous applause at the club's annual general meeting. And that's not all—young goalkeeper Luca Philipp's contract has been extended as well.
The previous season wasn't exactly a walk in the park for Hoffenheim, who closed it out in a disappointing 15th place. Schicker summed it up bluntly, "It was a shit season." But as he looks to the future, he's focusing on rebuilding the team's identity and drawing in fans: "What's important for me is that TSG stands for something again, that there are profiles, that there are players people want to see in the stadium, and that we all rally together."
In the spirit of revitalization, a new version of the club's statutes was passed, which emphasizes stronger member involvement and legal adjustments. The crowd also voted in Christoph Henssler as the second chairman of the e.V., edging out Simone Engelhardt and Lorenz Glück.
Despite last year's turbulent annual general meeting, this year's event was a lot calmer.
