The time has apparently come. Germany's preeminent footballing publication now confirms reports appearing earlier in the day from the country's main sporting tabloid. Relegation-threatened Arminia Bielefeld will give the veteran a contract through the end of the season.
Castro has made 409 top flight appearances in parts of 16 seasons with Stuttgart, Dortmund, and Bayer 04 Leverkusen. In his last active years, he's worked primary as a six, but can still play at the eight position.
