“Romano is a talented player, who’s received really good training, originally in Graz and then in Salzburg. We’re delighted to be able to secure his services, however we’d like to loan him out for 18 months so that he can gain experience at a high level. The Netherlands could be an interesting market for that,” explains Frank Baumann.
“It’s always been a dream of mine to reach the Bundesliga, which is why I’m very excited about this opportunity to be able to play for such a big club like Werder sooner or later and make my dream a reality,” says Romano Schmid, confidently looking to the future. Romano Schmid will not immediately begin training with Werder. The 18-year-old must first clear up a few formalities regarding his call-up to the army.
