New jersey, new numbers: Heidenheim starts with fresh faces!

A new wind is blowing at 1. FC Heidenheim 1846, and not just on the pitch, but also in the changing rooms. With the start of the 2025/26 season there are some exciting changes to the players' shirt numbers. Those responsible at the club have announced what numbers the players will wear in the future. New signing Arijon Ibrahimović, who has just returned from a loan deal with FC Bayern Munich, will wear the number 22 on his back. A promising start for the young player.

In addition, Adam Kölle and Nick Rothweiler from the HARTMANN Youth Performance Center have moved up to the professional team and will wear the shirt numbers 28 and 33 respectively. A good step that shows that the club relies on its own talents and also values ​​them. Niklas Dorsch, on the other hand, takes over number 30, which was previously used by Norman Theuerkauf. Theuerkauf recently retired, and one can only hope that Dorsch will follow in his footsteps.

Departures and new arrivals

Another change concerns Budu Zivzivadze, who will wear number 11 in the future. This number was previously reserved for striker Denis Thomalla, who moved to AEL Limassol in Cyprus. For the remaining players, everything stays the same; they keep their previous shirt numbers. Such changes are part of the preparation for a new season that holds a lot of hope.

But there is news not only about the shirt numbers: Frans Krätzig has left the Bundesliga and is moving to Austria to RB Salzburg, where he would like to take on the challenge in another league. The 22-year-old, who was on loan from FC Bayern to 1. FC Heidenheim in the second half of the 2024/25 season, will take part in the Club World Cup with Salzburg, which begins on June 15th. Krätzig, who enjoyed his football training at 1. FC Nürnberg and developed further through the Bayern youth academy, had a total of 21 appearances in the Bundesliga with one goal.

The departures and new arrivals, both on and off the pitch, show that there is movement at 1. FC Heidenheim. The first games of the new season will show whether the new constellation will bring the desired success. The anticipation is great and the fans can be excited about what's to come.

In the meantime, the team will do everything in its power to prepare optimally and integrate the new players quickly. After all, every number that is worn on the back and every decision that is made for the future of the club counts. FC Heidenheim and Kicker are the best contact points for all fans of the latest news and background information to always have their finger on the pulse.
