According to dhb.de, Uwe Gensheimer and Steffen Weinhold will no longer play for the German national team. The veterans made such decisions after the Tokyo Olympics.

Gensheimer has been captain of the national team since 2014. As part of the national team, he became the bronze medalist of the Games in Rio. In 204 matches in the form of “Bundesmannschaft” Gensheimer has scored 921 goals.

Weinhold made his national team debut in 2008. During this time, he played 137 matches and scored 336 goals. The welterweight became the 2016 European champion. Also in his collection is the bronze of the Games in Rio.

In turn, after the Tokyo Olympics, 30-year-old lineman Hendrik Pekeler took a break from playing for the national team. He wants to devote more time to his family. 38-year-old goalkeeper Johannes Bitter has also stopped being a national team player. But he has an agreement with the team’s helmsman Alfred Gislason that, if necessary, the goalie can again put on the uniform of the national team.

Mikkael Appelgren will be out of the handball for a long period ahead of us. The Swedish goalkeeper from Rhein Neckar Lowen had to repeat knee surgery in order to make his condition better and get back to proffesional handball.

• I would have loved to post something about my comeback, finally being able to catch that ball with my hands again. Or atleast something funny with the flamingo on the floor…
  Sadly, my facial expression is the one I can relate to most. After a looooong (far to long) period of hope and despair, my knee still does not allow much workload or any at all.
  Another surgery is needed to fix my right knee, I feel frustrated, exhausted and broken. But I have to come to terms with it and find the energy to set another setback straight. I really hope the last wrong turn on the journey back to the handball court is corrected.

MVP of the Olympic Games in Tokyo, Mathias Gidsel, will join Fuchse Berlin in summer 2022. The Danish right back, member of GOG, has signed three years contract with the team from German capital.

Sports director Stefan Kretzschmar: “I’m looking forward to one of the greatest talents of our time. He’s an incredibly clever player who makes few mistakes. It will be good for our play culture and form a great trio with Fabi Wiede and Nils Lichtlein. I am proud that he chose us despite many offers. He has his heart in the right place and is a great guy. In addition, my absolute dream player, whom we have been working on for a long time. We really wanted him and that was the decisive factor in the end. ”

Coach Jaron Siewert: “He is a player who has aroused a lot of desire and we, but especially me as a coach, are very happy that we succeeded in this spectacular transfer. It fits perfectly into our playing philosophy and has all the attributes that help us as Füchse Berlin to keep attacking the top. ”

Managing Director Bob Hanning: “This is one of the most beautiful days for me as Managing Director of Füchse Berlin, because we managed to bring Mathias Gidsel to Berlin against what is arguably the highest and best-endowed national and international competition. His appearance at the Füchse Berlin office with the sentence that he wanted to join an association that has to do more to achieve great success than others shows his attitude, which we can already look forward to in Berlin. Stefan Kretzschmar’s persistence in the implementation of the transfers Max Darj and Mathias Gidsel show how valuable he is for the club. ”

Mathias Gidsel: “The Bundesliga is the strongest league in the world and I made a conscious decision in favor of Füchse Berlin because I was enthusiastic about the concept and it will be fun to develop with this team.”
