Kicker Report: Austrian defensive talent passes Union medical
Having already introduced a new addition for the attack, 1. FC Union Berlin will reportedly have a defensive signing to introduce before the day is out. Germany's Kicker Magazine reports that Austrian international Leopold Querfeld has passed his medical in Köpenick. The 20-year-old Rapid Wien central defender has become a regular with his Austrian Bundesliga side at a very young age.
Kicker reports that Querfeld - also a part of Ralf Rangnick's side for the coming European Championships - will arrive in Köpenick via an exit clause in his current contract. The youngster already maintains an estimated market worth of €5 million in the latest transfermarkt listings. Querfeld scored three goals and registered one assists in 38 appearances across all competitions for Wien last season.
