Austrian international Sebastian Proedl to leave Bremen

Xinhua, May 13, 2015 Adjust font size:

Bremen defender Sebastian Proedl leaves the "Werderaner" at the end of the season, the German Bundesliga club announced in an official statement on Tuesday.

After wearing the jersey of the "Green-Whites" for seven years, Proedl decided not to extend his expiring contract and to close the chapter at the end of the season.

"I had a fantastic time in Bremen and I owe the club a lot but for the next season I would like to meet a new challenge," the 27 year old center back said.

Proedl joined Werder Bremen from Austrian side Sturm Graz in 2008 to provide 10 goals and six assists in 147 Bundesliga appearances overall.

Bremen sit on the 8th place of the Bundesliga standings. They face third-placed Monchengladbach at the 33rd round on Saturday. Endi
