1. FC Union Berlin and Eintracht Braunschweig have agreed to extend the loan of midfielder Keita Endo, ensuring the Japanese midfielder will continue to play in the 2. Bundesliga for the 2023/24 season.
From Japan to Germany
In the summer of 2020, the now 25-year-old left his Japanese homeland for Europe. Having initially joined 1. FC Union Berlin on loan for the 2020/21 season, the Eisernen went on to sign the two-time international on a permanent basis.
Endo made 21 appearances for 2Union before moving on to play for Eintracht Braunschweig in the 2. Bundesliga on loan last summer. There, he became a regular starter, especially in the middle of the season, ultimately making a total of 20 appearances in the famous yellow jersey.
