Just a few days before the regional league opener, 1. FC Düren has made another announcement on the transfer market.
Just a few days before the start of the regional league season, 1. FC Düren has made its 13th addition. And Rafael Garcia is a midfielder with a wealth of experience.
He has already made 156 appearances in the Regionalliga (31 goals, 21 assists) and 74 appearances in the 3rd division (eleven goals, nine assists). He has been under contract with clubs such as Alemannia Aachen, Rot-Weiß Oberhausen and most recently the Kickers from Offenbach.
He is now moving to 1. FC Düren. FC sporting director Adam Matuschyk emphasizes: “Rafael Garcia is an important piece of the puzzle. From day one of the preparations, you could feel that it just fits here. All the better that we can now make firm plans with him.”
The team from Düren will kick off the season on Saturday (July 27) with their first league match at 2 p.m. against the U23s of SC Paderborn. And just one day later (3:30 p.m.), a one-off match against record champions FC Bayern Munich is on the program, which is already sold out.
And a new shirt sponsor has been secured especially for this highlight. “We are proud to welcome Wintec Autoglas as a new partner to the ranks of FC Düren’s supporters. For us as a young regional league team, it is not a matter of course to be able to win over a big player. We are therefore all the more pleased to have a new shirt sponsor for our test match against Bayern Munich. Special thanks go to Markus Buchcik, who signaled his willingness to provide the chest of the special jersey with advertising in very uncomplicated talks,” explains Daniel Hunf, Vice President of FC Düren.
Markus Buchcik, member of the management team at Wintec Autoglas headquarters in Limburg an der Lahn, adds: “We are very happy to support this special soccer event as a shirt sponsor with a special shirt. Soccer and sports clubs are generally an excellent multiplier for increasing awareness of our network as an end customer brand and therefore fit in very well with our strategic direction. “
