Heidenheim have officially confirmed the reported on signing of Christian Conteh from Eintracht Braunschweig.Christian joins his older brother Sirlord at the relegation-threatened Bundesliga outfit. The two brothers now represent the same club for the first time since they both featured for St. Pauli in 2019.

During the first half of the current campaign, Christian remains the third fastest clocked player of any professional currently featuring in the Bundesliga or 2. Bundesliga. He achieved a top speed of 36.12 km/hr earlier this year.

The move to Heidenheim is the next important step in my career,” the player himself added. “Being able to play alongside my brother will be something special. Heidenheim stands for passion, hard work, and great team spirit.
