Head coach Florian Kohfeldt is also looking forward to continuing his relationships with the Czech defender: “I hold Theo in very high regard, not just as a footballer but as a person aswell. He’s a real team player and gives everything for the team, which he has shown once again this season. I’m very happy that he will continue to be a part of our team going forward.”
“I’ve always emphasised how much I wanted to continue to play for Werder and I’m happy that we’ve come to such a quick agreement. It’s also very important for my family. Now I’m just looking forward to the upcoming games and playing in front of our fans. My goal is to once again play European football here at Werder,” Gebre Selassie stated.
