Früchtl has been training regularly with the first team and is widely believed to be Manuel Neuer’s successor. His contract was set to expire at the end of this season.

“The club has great faith in Christian, who undoubtedly is one of the club’s greatest talents,” stated Rößner.

“Christian’s big ambition is to be in goal for the first-team someday.”
