Krätzig joined VfB in summer 2024 and made one appearance in the Bundesliga, two in the DFB Cup and one in the DFL Supercup (one assist). He also featured twice for the VfB U21s, who play in the third tier.
Frans Krätzig: “I felt very comfortable at VfB from day one. I’d like to thank my team-mates, the coaching and backroom team and all the other staff for the time together. The time has now come for me to embark on a new path and take on a new challenge. I wish VfB and their great fans all the best for the future.”
Sporting director Christian Gentner: “Frans has big potential and can play at both full-back and in midfield. Not least because of the competition for places in our squad, Frans hasn’t had the playing time he wanted in the last few months, which is why we’ve agreed with him and FC Bayern to terminate the loan early. We wish Frans all the best for the future and thank him for his service in the VfB shirt.”
