FC Union Berlin Team News - Soccer

Christopher Trimmel - Signs contract extension Trimmel is staying at Union Berlin until the 2026/27 campaign after signing a new contract, the team announced Tuesday.

Impact Trimmel will continue his career for at least another season with the team in which he has found the most success over the past 11 years. The veteran full-back should continue to stand out as a playmaker and set-piece taker, although his playing time could eventually decrease given that he'll be 39 years old by the next season. During the 2025/26 Bundesliga competition, he has delivered two assists from 35 chances created and 120 crosses after 16 matches played.

Frederik Ronnow - Two saves for draw Ronnow registered two saves and allowed one goal in Sunday's 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart.

Impact Ronnow faced three shots during Sunday's draw and stopped two of them. It was enough for the goalkeeper to earn a point, though in truth he would have wanted the clean sheet and win. Ronnow has been solid, if not glamorous with four clean sheets in 18 starts and 27 goals allowed.

Diogo Leite - Quiet for draw Leite registered one shot (zero on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart.

Impact Leite created a chance and took a shot during Sunday's draw, just missing out on a clean sheet. Leite is a very defensive center-back, with limited chances to roam forward. That limits any occasional offensive upside he offers and a mixed midfield unit means he doesn't pile on the clean sheets either.

Stanley Nsoki - Rare assist for draw Nsoki assisted once to go with one shot (zero on goal), one cross (zero accurate) and one chance created in Sunday's 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart.

Impact Nsoki provided one assist during Sunday's draw, a rare goal contribution for the defender, who often struggles to get on the ball in the attacking third. It's more likely than not that this is just a blip and not an indicator of a heavily-offensive second half of the season. Nsoki remains a limited defensive option moving forward.

Jeong Woo-yeong - Nets in draw Jeong scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal) in Sunday's 1-1 draw against VfB Stuttgart.

Impact Jeong scored once during Sunday's draw, making the most of his two shots on goal. The forward didn't get many chances against Stuttgart, but he was dangerous the few times he did get on the ball. Jeong will hope to build on this goalscoring with a tough run of matches on the horizon.

Andrej Ilic - Assists late equaliser Ilic assisted once to go with one shot (one on goal) and two chances created in Thursday's 1-1 draw versus FC Augsburg.

Impact Ilic came from the bench with 26 minutes to go and found Marin Ljubicic, who scored a late equaliser. This was his seventh assist of the season. Last season, he scored seven but didn't get any assists. This year, he has seven assists with no goals. He has been a sub five times this year, all coming in the last six matches, but he has come off the bench to assist twice in this time. This was the first time since October that he has created more than one chance in a game.

He has scored with both his shots so far this season.

Derrick Kohn - Sent off in draw Kohn received a red card during Thursday's 1-1 draw against Augsburg.

Impact Kohn was shown a straight red card because of a late foul in the midweek clash. He's now banned for the upcoming clash with Stuttgart and possibly more time if the disciplinary committee adds games to his suspension. He has been active lately as a left wing-back, providing one assist over his last six starts. With Tom Rothe (undisclosed) also unavailable, Stanley Nsoki may get increased playing time until Kohn is able to return.

JANUARY 15 • ROTOWIRE

Tim Skarke - Out with injury Skarke (undisclosed) is not an option for the club for the time being due to an undisclosed injury, according to manager Steffen Baumgart.

Impact Skarke had to miss the club's first match after the winter break and is going to miss another game, out for the midweek contest. A return date is still up in the air for the midfielder, likely to return to a rotational role once fit, with only two starts in 12 appearances this campaign.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Rothe - Continues on sidelines Rothe (undisclosed) is out for Thursday's match against Augsburg, according to manager Steffen Baumgart.

Impact Rothe has missed the past two games through injury and will not return midweek, missing out as he continues on the sidelines with no return date. It is only a minor loss for the club, with only five starts in 12 appearances, more of a rotational option.

JANUARY 14 • ROTOWIRE

Marin Ljubicic - Scores in return Ljubicic scored one goal on one shot in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Mainz.

Impact Ljubicic, making his first appearance of the season for Berlin, came off the bench to score his first goal of the season. Coming on as a sub in the 78th minute with his team down a goal, Ljubicic struck in the 86th minute equalling the game at 2-2 and earning his team a draw. The forward should be in line for more playing time as the season draws on, his next chance to do so will come Thursday versus Augsburg.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Derrick Kohn - First goal contribution for Berlin Kohn had one assist, three tackles won and five accurate crosses in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Mainz.

Impact Kohn got his name on the score sheet Saturday, marking his first assist with his new team in his 16th appearance. The talented midfielder has been a steady source of tackles and clearances (five each in his last three games) but the goal contributions have been hard to come by. Kohn will look to build on today's performance on Thursday versus Augsburg.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Frederik Ronnow - So so performance in draw Ronnow made four saves on nine shot attempts (six on target) allowing two goals in Saturday's 2-2 draw versus Mainz

Impact Coming off his fourth clean sheet of the year Ronnow was not at his best in Saturday's contest. His four saves were the most in his last seven appearances, but the two goals conceded have felt like the standard lately. The inconsistency from Ronnow has been frustrating, the goalkeeper has four clean sheets on the year, but has also conceded three or more goals five times. Ronnow will look to steady the ship on Thursday versus Augsburg.

JANUARY 12 • ROTOWIRE

Tim Skarke - Injured for Saturday Skarke is out for Saturday's match against Mainz due to an injury, according to his club.

Impact Skarke will not be with the team Saturday just after the break, as the midfielder has returned unable to play. His issues are yet to be detailed, although this is a minor loss. He has only started in two of his 12 appearances this season, scoring one goal in his time on the field.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Tom Rothe - Won't play Saturday Rothe is out for Saturday's match against Mainz due to an injury, according to manager Steffen Baumgart.

Impact Rothe is not with the team as they enter the new season, as the defender is instead missing out due to a an undisclosed injury. The good news is this is a minor loss for the club, as he has only started in five games all season, mainly serving as an option from the bench.

JANUARY 8 • ROTOWIRE

Leopold Querfeld - One shot on Saturday Querfeld had one shot (one on goal) and one chance created in Saturday's 1-0 victory against 1. FC Koln.

Impact Querfeld made 11 clearances in the match, more than any player in the match. It was the second occasion this season where the 22-year-old made more than 10 clearances in a single league fixture. Querfeld made a block as well.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Schafer scored the team's only goal in the match, which was his first in the league campaign. Despite playing just six minutes, the 26-year-old had two shots and scored the winner for the team. Schafer made a couple of blocks as well.

DECEMBER 23, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Janik Haberer - Clears suspension Haberer is no longer suspended and is an option moving forward for the club.

Impact Haberer has served his suspension due to yellow cards accumulation in the Bundesliga and is set to return in the next contest. The midfielder started the last two games prior to his suspension for Union Berlin and could be set to claim back a similar role against Mainz on Jan. 10.

DECEMBER 22, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Robert Skov - Remains out Skov (undisclosed) is still in the rehabilitation process of his injury and remains out for the time being, coach Steffen Baumgart said in the press conference.

Impact Skov is still not available for Union Berlin, as he continues his rehabilitation from the injury that has sidelined him since mid September. There is no precise timeline for his return, but his absence is a blow for the team, as he has been an undisputed starter when fit and available since last season. Derrick Kohn is currently the player starting on the left flank to replace him.

DECEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Janik Haberer - Suffers fifth yellow Haberer has picked up a fifth yellow card and is suspended for one game.

Impact Haberer is being forced to the sidelines with a suspension this week, suffering a one-game ban through yellow card accumulation. He will now be out until after the winter break when facing Mainz on Jan. 10. He has started in their past two games, so a change will be made, with Andras Schafer or Alex Kral as possible replacements in the midfield.

DECEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Andrej Ilic - Records assist Ilic assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Friday's 3-1 win against RB Leipzig.

Impact Ilic had come off the bench Friday and had a solid outing in his 23 minutes of work, with the forward recording an assist in extra time. This marks his third straight appearance on the bench, appearing to have fallen out of the starting XI after he started in the first 10 games of the season. This is a bit surprising, as he has recorded six assists in 13 appearances this season.

DECEMBER 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Christopher Trimmel - Earns assist Trimmel assisted once to go with four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Friday's 3-1 victory versus RB Leipzig.

Impact Trimmel came off the bench with just 31 minutes to play and recorded an assist, finding Ilyas Ansah in the 64th minute. This marks the midfielder's second assist of the season, accounting for all of his goal contributions this campaign. He will likely return to his starting role next contest after the assist, with 11 starts in 13 appearances this campaign.
