Club career
[edit]A youth product of Borussia Mönchengladbach, he represented their reserve squad in the Regionalliga West, in the German fourth tier, as well as Eredivisie side Roda JC Kerkrade on loan in the 2017–18 season. In 2018, he moved to FC Luzern for a reported 650,000 CHF and collected 44 caps for Luzern in the Swiss Super League.[1] In his final season at Luzern, he barely saw any play anymore, making only six appearances in the league.
On 30 June 2022, he signed for Grasshopper Club Zürich on a free transfer.[2] In his first official game for Grasshoppers, he was nominated to the starting lineup in a 2–1 win over FC Lugano on 24 July 2022.[3] On 6 August 2022, he scored his first goal for the Grasshoppers, with a shot from 20 meters, equalizing the game mere seconds before the half-time break.[4] He scored a second goal in the same game in the 69th minute for the 3–2 winner over FC St. Gallen. It was his first ever goals in the Swiss Super League and earned him the MVP title for the match.[5] On 10 February 2023, he signed an early contract extension with the Grasshoppers, keeping him at the club until 2025.[6] In his first half year with the Grasshoppers, he played 16 of 19 games, scoring three goals and supplying one assist, and became an important focal point in the midfield.
