Enzo Leopold stays at Hannover 96: contract extended until 2026!
The 24-year-old Enzo Leopold will continue to play for Hannover 96. How Picture reported, the player has extended his contract until summer 2026. This is an important decision as the future is traditionally decided one year before the end of the contract. Leopold, who has been with the club since July 2022, seems to be comfortable in the 2nd Bundesliga and has developed his role in the team into a top performer.
“I have never regretted moving to Hannover,” said Leopold, emphasizing his positive feeling in the city and the club. Hannover 96 also highlighted his impressive record: So far this season he has made 20 appearances and contributed to the club's strong performance with two goals and three assists. 96 sports director Marcus Mann praised Leopold's adaptability and development.
A strong performance as a captain
In the last friendly against Randers FC, which was lost 2-1, Leopold put on the captain's armband while goalkeeper Ron-Robert Zieler was missing due to injury. Despite the defeat, he saw many positive aspects in the game. “The captaincy is something special for me, but it doesn’t change the way I play,” said the midfielder.
Leopold's achievements are impressive: in his debut season he had 23 appearances and four assists across all competitions. He has already started 19 games this season, which underlines his importance in the team. His assists in the second half of the season all came from set pieces and these have proven to be key to the team's success.
Where does the path lead?
Leopold's market value is currently around 2.5 million euros, which reflects his development and the value for Hannover 96. His signing from SC Freiburg in the summer of 2022 is now turning out to be good business. Fans can look forward to seeing what further successes the talented player will achieve in the coming years.
Overall, Hannover 96 is optimistic about its future development, not least thanks to players like Enzo Leopold, who fight for the club with passion and dedication.
