Viktoria Aschaffenburg secures Gorbunow and Rodriguez for the long term!

A lot has happened at Viktoria Aschaffenburg in the last few weeks, especially in relation to contract negotiations with two promising players. The contract extension of Michael Gorbunow and the new contract with Lian Akkus Rodriguez are not only sporting decisions, but also show the club's commitment to stand together strongly in difficult times. There are many exciting aspects behind the scenes that are worth exploring.

Michael Gorbunow, who at the age of 26 plays an important role in the team, remains part of Viktoria Aschaffenburg. Despite his recent injury problems, particularly a torn cruciate ligament that put him out of action at the start of the 24/25 season, the club has given him a new contract until the 25/26 season. This underlines the appreciation he enjoys in the club. Sandro Sirigu, the club's sporting director, particularly emphasizes Gorbunow's fighting heart and emphasizes his identification with the club. Gorbunov himself plans to support the team in management matters during his rehab, which shows that he wants to be there for his team even during the time of injury. sva01.de reports about this positive development.

New signing Lian Akkus Rodriguez

Another exciting newcomer is Lian Akkus Rodriguez, a talented attacking midfielder who also moved from FC Gießen to Viktoria Aschaffenburg. Rodriguez brings a breath of fresh air to the tenth position and already has 18 appearances, one goal and one assist in the Regionalliga-Südwest. Head coach Aytac Sulu is enthusiastic about Rodriguez’s technical skills and creativity. The new player himself is optimistic about the challenge and the direction of the club. He has also received a contract until June 30, 2026, confirming his long-term commitment to the club.

The discussion about injuries in competitive sports is current, and questions about decision-making in the diagnosis and treatment of sports injuries often come into play. A systems theory-constructivist approach, which is discussed in a study from Tübingen, examines the psychosocial conditions of such decisions and develops a multi-perspective model for injury-related management. Evidence shows that athletes often do not disclose their pain in order to compete and that there is a lack of clear decision-making processes in injury treatment. These findings encourage sports organizations to develop integrated injury management and better understand the social dynamics in sports. uni-tuebingen.de provides important insights.

All in all, it shows that Viktoria Aschaffenburg is on the right track with Gorbunow and Rodriguez. The long-term planning and focus on the personal and sporting development of the players underline the club's ambitions to be successful in the coming season. It remains exciting to see how the two newcomers fit into the team and what further steps Viktoria Aschaffenburg will take in the future.
