Impact Trimmel will remain in Union Berlin for a tenth season, as he has agreed to a one-year extension with the club. He has played a rotational role this season, starting in 19 of his 28 appearances, and likely holding the same role next season.

Impact Trimmel set up Robin Knoche's opening goal with a perfect cross from a corner kick, and the talented midfielder was a constant threat due to his role in set pieces.

Eight crosses in start Trimmel recorded eight crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-1 win against Werder Bremen.

Ideally for him, his latest log helped him cement the latter role for future matchups. He attempted eight crosses, his highest amount in that category since January. Trimmel has logged more than five crosses in three of his last four starts, a level of form that indicates how threatening he can be from the flank when given quality opportunities to play.

MARCH 17, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Suspension served Trimmel served a two-match ban and is now eligible to return for Saturday's trip to Hoffenheim.

Impact Trimmel was shown a straight red card against Leipzig and missed two matches in a row. The right-back should now be straight back in the starting XI, which should shift Alex Kral back into central midfield after deputizing at right wing-back.

Sent off Sunday Trimmel was shown a straight red card and sent off during Sunday's 2-0 loss to Leipzig.

Impact Trimmel will miss two or three matches due to a suspension after being shown the straight red. With Trimmel on the sideline it will likely be Jerome Roussillon who comes in to the starting XI for a Wednesday trip to Mainz and Saturday clash with Wolfsburg.

Impact Trimmel had his second consecutive start, something that didn't happen since he lost his starting spot in November, and made most of the opportunity, having a season high in key passes while racking up double-digit crosses for the sixth time this season. If he keeps playing like this, it would be very hard removing him from the lineup again.

JANUARY 30, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Three crosses against Augsburg Trimmel generated one shot (one on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 1-1 draw against FC Augsburg.

Impact Trimmel wasn't all too productive on Saturday, only registering one shot, two chances created and three crosses in the draw. It was definitely a step down from his normal performances, as he has reached five or more crosses in nine of his 12 appearances this season. He returned to the starting lineup for this match after a two match spell on the bench and should return to his normal starting spot for the club's upcoming matches.

NOVEMBER 26, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

He carried on to play a key part in his squad's limited attack, sending 11 crosses, but only two that were accurate. Trimmel is now up to 15 accurate crosses through seven league appearances this season.

Logs 20 crosses against Werder Trimmel had one off-target shot, created four chances, sent in 20 crosses (seven accurate) and made three tackles (one won) during Saturday's 1-0 win over Werder Bremen.

Impact Trimmel was definitely helped by his role on set pieces but racking up 20 crosses, a season high for him, is impressive under any circunstances. The midfielder lost his starting spot for a period between March and April but ended up starting the last three matches of the campaign. After finishing this campaign with six assists, 35 chances created and 180 crosses over 25 appearances, Trimmel will probably remain an important piece for next season, regardless of his role in the squad.

Impact Trimmel assisted Danilho Doekhi from a set piece yet again Saturday, finding him in the 44th minute for the match's opening goal. He now has three assists in his past two appearances, with all three finding Doekhi's head on set pieces. Trimmel filled up the defensive stat sheet as well, winning all three of his attempted tackles, as well as making three interceptions and four clearances. With a newfound connection with Doekhi and his high volume of crosses each game (averaging over six per game), Trimmel may be a good shout for more assists in the near future.

JANUARY 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Two assists Saturday Trimmel assisted twice to go with three shots (zero on goal), 15 crosses (six accurate) and six corners in Saturday's 3-1 victory over Hoffenheim.

Trimmel has just two assists despite that, far from his nine assists he totaled in the 2021/22 campaign.
