Alemannia Aachen tests new talents: Who convinces in the friendly?

A lot is currently happening in Aachen, while Alemannia Aachen is taking the opportunity to test new talent during the international break. Three players are currently in focus and are showing their skills: Mehdi Loune, David Richter and Mohammed Tolba. These players have the chance to be recommended for a contract and have recently been examined in training.

Mehdi Loune, the 21-year-old midfielder, started his career in the youth ranks of Eintracht Frankfurt, where he was trained from 2016 to 2022. He not only made his debut in the Hessenliga, but also gained international experience in the UEFA Youth League, including matches against well-known teams such as Sporting Lisbon and Tottenham Hotspur. Loune has been training at Alemannia for three weeks and could offer himself as reinforcement after he was not offered a new contract at Eintracht Frankfurt, reports the Kicker.

Another candidate is David Richter, a 26-year-old goalkeeper with solid third division experience. Richter has already made 32 appearances in this league, including for TSV 1860 Munich, VfL Osnabrück and SV Sandhausen. He most recently guarded the goal in the home game against Sandhausen, where his team won 2-1. Whether Richter can get a place in the team depends heavily on his performance in training and the upcoming test matches alemannia-aachen.de reported.

A great talent in the defense area

Third place is Mohammed Tolba, also 21 years old. The central defender has learned his craft in the youngsters of VfL Bochum, where he rose through the various youth teams from 2015 to 2022. Last season he played 15 games for the second team of Bochum in the Oberliga Westphalia and celebrated the promotion to the Regionalliga West. Tolba also has experience in under-national teams that could benefit him, like the t-online.de highlights.

Coach Benedetto Muzzicato's team urgently needs a breath of fresh air, especially after the last two defeats. A test match against VfL Bochum is scheduled for Thursday, where the players can show themselves. The next competitive game after the international break is against FC Ingolstadt on October 18th, followed by games against SV Wehen Wiesbaden and 1. FC Saarbrücken. Alemannia Aachen is striving for a positive turnaround and could turn things around with the new faces. The omens are not bad, as other players such as Emmanuel Elekwa and Marius Wegmann have already shown convincing performances in recent months and have recommended themselves for their contract.

With this new selection, Alemannia hopes to raise its performance to a new level and get out of the current table. A good step in the right direction could already take place in the test against Bochum today.
