After playing a crucial role in guiding Mainz back to European football while netting 18 goals, Burkardt thanked Die Nullfünfer fans:

“I would like to express my deep gratitude for these wonderful ten years,” Burkardt said in an emotional farewell video shared by the club.

“Unfortunately, the moment has now come; my football journey in Mainz ends here, I would like to express my deep gratitude for these wonderful ten years,” he added.

The 24-year-old's deal with Die Adler will run until 2030 while the overall package amounted to €23million.
