The defender of Ghanaian root has completed his transfer loan switch to the German Second-Tier outfit until the end of the current football campaign
German 2. Bundesliga side SpVgg Greuther Fürth have announced the loan signing of German-born Ghanaian centre-back Joshua Quarshie from Bundesliga outfit TSG Hoffenheim.
The 20-year-old lanky stopper, who spent the last season on loan at fellow Second Division side Fortuna Düsseldorf, is set to spent the rest of the 2024-25 campaign at the Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer in the German lower division contest.
An official statement over the loan signing of the towering defender read: ''With Joshua Quarshie, the club was able to sign a central defender on loan for the rest of the season. The 20-year-old is under contract with TSG Hoffenheim and was most recently on loan to Fortuna Düsseldorf for a year.''
The Ghana-prospect had this to tell his temporal employers right after putting pen to paper on the deal via the club's official website: '' l was very happy when the people in charge here in Fürth approached me. It quickly became clear to me that I wanted to take this step and earn my playing time here with full commitment. I'm already looking forward to my first training session today and want to give it my all to help the team."
Sporting director Stephan Fürstner added: ''Joshua was very happy about our interest and he immediately signaled to us that he wanted to get involved here in Fürth. With his athleticism and robustness, he brings a lot of what we want from a central defender to stabilize our defense. And of course we are happy that we have been able to win another German U-national player for us in him."
Quarshie remains an important prospect for TSG Hoffenheim, hence the decision to farmed him out to suitors in order to continue with his development as a budding prospect.
Given his Ghanaian root, the 1.96 meter tall central defender still remains eligible to play for Ghana on the international stage despite playing for the Germany U18, U19 and U20 national youth teams.
