29-year-old striker Sebastian Freis joins 2. Bundesliga outfit Greuther Fürth leaving SC Freiburg. Since joining the Bundesliga club in 2011, Freis has not appeared in more than 17 appearances, never finding the back of the net more than three times.This move will be a fresh start for the veteran German from Karlsruher as he tries to regain his fine form in front of goal like he had in his younger days.
Fürth currently sit in the 13th spot in the second division in Germany on 23 points with a negative one goal differential. After their thrilling 3-3 draw with Fortuna Dusseldorf, Die Kleeblätter rattled off six straight matches in which they didn't even score a single goal. Things definitely needed to change for Frank Kramer's men and perhaps this new forward is enough to spark the offense. The defense is good -- have only given up 23 goals -- but boast one of the worst offenses in the league.
