"Chris is a large and powerful attacker who can help us," FCU managing director Oliver Ruhnert noted in a club statement "He's a very positive guy who comes to us with a lot of joy and drive and who we're really looking forward to."
"It's always been a dream of mine to play in one of the big leagues," Bedia himself added, "At 1. FC Union Berlin, I am now part of a club steeped in history that inspires many people."
Not unlike Becker, Bedia is generally regarded as a sort of "hybrid striker" who gravitates toward the flanks to fetch balls. He's scored ten goals and contributed a further three assists amid his excellent league season in Switzerland. The 27-year-old found the back of the net six more times for Servette in the Swiss club and Europa League.
