Werder confirm signing of Danish midfielder
Danish midfielder Jens Stage has joined Werder Bremen from FC Copenhagen.
SV Werder Bremen have announced the signing of Danish midfielder Jens Stage on a permanent deal from FC Copenhagen. The parties have agreed to keep the details undisclosed.
"Jens has made over 100 competitive appearances for Copenhagen over the last three years, and has also picked up experience playing at the international level. His energy and aggressiveness will be of benefit to us in midfield. We’re pleased to have been able to convince him to move to Werder,” said Werder head of scouting and professional football Clemens Fritz.
Jens Stage commented:
"I'm really excited to play in the Bundesliga. Werder Bremen are a well-known club in Denmark, not just because of how close Bremen is to the border. I knew I wanted to take this chance as soon as I heard about the interest. I can hardly wait to play at this stadium in front of the fans."
The 25-year-old midfielder racked up nine goals and two assists for FC Copenhagen last season.
