Chinedu Ede on the Brink of Mainz
Chinedu Ede has left FC Union Berlin
and will sign a four-year contract with Bundesliga club Mainz ,
who pay the wages of Olympic National Team striker Anthony Ujah.
The transfer fee for the 25 year old Ede
is a reported one million euros. His former club Hertha BSC will get an
undisclosed percentage from the sale of the ex Germany
youth - teamer.
''Ede is a
typical Mainz 05-transfer. He
started at the age of 19 years in the Bundesliga with Hertha, but he has
managed only in the last year in the breakthrough of the second division.
''Thomas Tuchel (coach of Mainz )
is convinced the fast-rounder could play all three offensive positions behind
the strikers. He has so far lacked consistency. We are convinced that we are
the right club for Chinedu Ede and the right coach,"general manager of Mainz ,
Christian Heidel was quoted as saying by rhein-zeitung.de.
Chinedu Ede has played for Germany 's
Under 19 - 21 teams. He netted 7 goals in 31 appearances last season for FC
Union Berlin .
