Oliver Kirch moves to Paderborn
Borussia Dortmunds‘ Oliver Kirch transfers to the second league football club SC Paderborn. He is thankful for “three incredible years with many highlights”.
The 33 year old all-rounder transferred from 1. FC Kaiserslautern to BVB in summer 2012 and took part in 24 Bundesliga matches (one goal/two assists) and six UEFA Champions league matches. His performance in the quarter final second leg of the Champions League against eventual champions Real Madrid in spring 2014 (2-0) will not be forgotten.
BVB sporting director Michael Zorc said: “We thank Oliver for his commitment and wish him all the best for his future.”
“I want to give a big thank you to everyone, the fans, all the BVB staff and especially my team mates. I have had three incredible years with many ups and downs. I wouldn't trade the 30 matches I played for BVB for 100 matches with a different club.” Kirch said after his departure.
