OFFICIAL: SG Dynamo Dresden sign German-born Ghanaian winger

The 22-year-old winger of Ghanaian descent has completed his season-long loan deal with the German lower tier outfit in the ongoing summer transfer window 

Bundesliga 3 side SG Dynamo Dresden have announced the loan signing of German-born Ghanaian winger Christian Joe Conteh from Dutch Eredivisie side Feyenoord Rotterdam until June 2023.

Having spent the 2021/22 season on loan at FC Dordrecht, the former St. Pauli youth product has again been farmed out to the German side as he is not in the plans of manager Arne Slot ahead of next term league campaign.

After inking his loan deal, the 22-year-old said " l would like to use his strengths to help the team so that we can achieve our goals together" in their bid to excel in the third division contest come next season.

"I really enjoy my time at SG Dynamo Dresden. So I'm all the more pleased to be able to get to know all my new team-mates directly in the training camp. I would like to use my strengths to help the team so that we can achieve our goals together. It's important that we have a total presence in the 3rd division from day one. In this respect, I am already looking forward to seeing the first home game in the Rudolf Harbig Stadium and feeling the impressive support from the fans," Conteh told his club's official website

Sporting director Ralf Becker voice his excitement over the signing of the youngster as he believes he will make the grade in his set-up given his qualities as a winger.

"We are very satisfied that Christian Conteh decided to join SG Dynamo Dresden out of conviction. He's a classic winger - quick, brave in one-on-ones and capable of scoring goals. With his qualities he will enrich our offensive game. In addition, it is very positive that we found an immediate solution with all sides so that he could still join the team in the training camp," Becker added to his club's communications network.

Conteh's current deal with Feyenoord Rotterdam will run out in June 2024 and his market value is being pegged at €450,000 as per his transfermarkt valuation.

Born in Hamburg, the budding talent is still eligible to switch allegiance to represent Ghana at the international level.
