Thomas Kessler, Head of Football, said: “Since his arrival in our under-17s, Damion has continued to develop. Despite one or two setbacks at a young age, he has proven his qualities in what was a very successful season for our under-19s. We are pleased that we can continue that together and are convinced that he will make the next steps towards first-team football with our coaching staff.”

One moment from the last game of the season against Eintracht Frankfurt has stuck in Bo Svensson’s mind. It came during a period of real pressure from Mainz, when Jonny Burkardt got in behind after a well-timed pass from midfield. It looked like he would be able to make it 1-0 to FSV, however as he got closer to goal, SGE defender Almamy Touré got back to dispossess him.

Such has been his seamless adaptation to life in the Bundesliga that it is hard to imagine a VfL side that does not include the name Jakub Kaminski. The 20-year-old, who was named the Polish Ekstraklasa’s best young player of the 2021/22 campaign, joined the Green-and-Whites from Lech Poznan in the summer and has caught the eye under Niko Kovac thanks to his bold dribbling, raw pace and hard work in defence. His winning goal against regional rivals Eintracht Braunschweig in the DFB Cup also earned Kaminski a permanent place in the hearts of Wolves supporters.
