VfL Wolfsburg have confirmed their first signing for the 2023/24 season with the announcement that Cedric Zesiger has joined the club.


The 24-year-old Swiss Young Boys defender will move to the Volkswagen Arena this summer on a four-year deal.

"We are very happy that Cedric has decided to join VfL Wolfsburg," said VfL Wolfsburg sporting director Sebastian Schindzielorz.

"He is a player with enormous development potential who already has a lot of experience despite his young age. We are convinced that his footballing qualities, mentality and attitude, as well as his physical strength, will make him a valuable asset to our team.

Zesiger, whose main position is centre-back, commented:

"I have already met a lot of nice people and seen the stadium from the inside. I can hardly wait to get started and play there. But before that, I have one big goal in mind, which is to win the cup with Young Boys after the championship," Zesiger added:

"I had really good talks with the people in charge at VfL Wolfsburg and had a good feeling right from the start. It's just that the whole package is right."
