Is there something between FCA goalkeeper Finn Dahmen and Leeds United?

The little fan from Jettingen was disappointed that the goalkeepers of FC Augsburg did not train with the team on Wednesday morning during the first public training before the home game on Sunday (3:30 p.m.) against Holstein Kiel. FCA trainer Jess Thorup had set a performance test for his field players. That’s why he needed the whole field. And so his goalkeeper trio worked alone on the southern training ground with goalkeeper coach Marco Langner.

FCA goalkeeper Finn Dahmen plays an outstanding second half of the season

« That’s a shame. He was so happy. He plays at VfR Jettingen in the G-youth and is a big fan of Finn Dahmen, » said his grandfather. The quilting is not alone. The 27-year-old goalkeeper played in the spotlight with an outstanding second half of the season with the FCA (among other things he remained 683 minutes in a row without conceding a goal). You don’t have to be a clairvoyant to say that he is now no less clubs across Europe on the scoutinglists.

Leeds United is said to be interested in Finn Dahmen

The Sports picture I want to have learned that Premier League promoted Leeds United should deal with Dahmen. Leeds, which was led by the German coach Daniel Farke, has been owned by the investment company « 49ers Enterprise », a subsidiary of the San Francisco 49ers, a football team from the NFL since 2023. Red Bull also became a minority shareholder of the club.

What makes Dahmen also interesting for the English Premier League is the fact that in addition to Germans, he also has English citizenship (his mother is an Englishman) and would also be eligible to play for the English national team. Possibly also an incentive for Dahmen to deal intensively with a possible offer from the island.

Why the Treaty of FCA goalkeeper Finn Dahmen has extended until 2027

There is still no request or something similar, so you can see the whole thing relaxed at the FCA. Especially since Dahmen’s contract after his 50th competitive game for the FCA, it was that 0: 2 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen, has extended by a clause by one year to the summer of 2027. In the event of a case, the FCA would have a good negotiating position.

FCA extended with goalkeeper number three, Daniel Klein

But that’s all speculation The fact is the contract extension of goalkeeper Daniel Klein. The 24-year-old, who came from Hoffenheim in 2021 and whose contract would have expired in the summer, has now signed by 2026.

A surprising personnel, since Klein has not yet brought it to a single Bundesliga game. Not this season either. After the Dahmen injury, the FCA first rely on the 25-year-old newcomer Nediljko Labrović, who had to line up behind Dahmen after the winter break, but just small.

FCA trainer Jess Thorup hopes for the breakthrough of Daniel Klein

FCA coach Jess Thorup explained why you still hold on to small at the FCA. He refers to the good work and mood of the goalkeeper trio with goalkeeper coach Marco Langner. And Daniel Klein also contributes to this: « It is not only about number one, but also number two and three are very important for us to develop all three. » For Thorup, small is not just a « training goalkeeper ». Thorup says: « He has developed well and now we want to see whether he can also take the next step. It was the consideration whether it is now time that he is changing or whether we are still looking for another year. We have decided to do so and now hope that he can take the step now. »
