Overview

  • Ben-Luca Moritz, 25, will rejoin FSV Zwickau in the summer from Rot-Weiß Erfurt on a contract running through 30 June 2029.
  • The club finalized the move at the GGZ-Arena after a months-long push led by sporting director Robin Lenk, who also arranged housing help with CEO André Beuchold.
