Vico Meien returns to VfR Aalen - the goal is the goal!

Aalen, Deutschland - VfR Aalen has secured a real coup with the return of Vico Meien. The 27-year-old midfielder, who recently resolved his contract with the Stuttgart Kickers, will now bear the colors of the top division again. This return was officially announced on Friday and once again shows that the association is very popular when it comes to talented return actions. Schwäbische reports that Meien only completed eight missions for the Kickers before he decided to end his contract until 2026.

Vico Meien was no stranger in Aalen. Before moving to the Stuttgart Kickers, he was a central figure in the defensive midfield of VfR for two years. During this time he played over 60 games and helped the team to assert himself in the regional league. The time of the classroom after the bankruptcy and the WFV Cup victory against SG Sonnenhof Großaspach, which remains in a nice memory, was particularly formative. He also expressed his hope for a direct return for VfR Aalen and that he will pursue developments in the DFB Cup. Schwäbische Post reports on the association and its intention to continue to support him.

board emphasizes Meien qualities

Marc Elser, sports director of VfR Aalen, was certain that Meien would play a central role in the team. "He identifies with the club and brings the football quality and experience we need," said Elser. Board Michael Schäfer also emphasized how important it was to have a player with Meien character and football skills in the squad. This obligation is the second important one after the return of Thomas Geyer from Ulm and shows that the ambitions of VfR Aalen go towards ascent for the coming season. Schwäbische

A look at the transfer balance

On the financial side, VfR Aalen was able to achieve a positive balance in the current transfer period. With income of 9,015 euros compared to expenses of 8,000 euros, the total balance sheet is +15,000 euros. This gives the association to future transfers, while the departures of Meien, Paolo Maiella (TSV Steinbach Haiger), Marco Rienhardt (FC-Astoria Walldorf), Ibrahima Diakité (Bahlinger SC), Ephraim Eshele (Chemnitzer FC) and David Preu (Union Berlin U19) shift the priorities of the squad. Transfermarkt provides an overview of the complete approaches and exits and shows that the association is pursuing a clear strategy.

The return from Vico Meien to VfR Aalen is not only a sign of trust, but also a clear announcement that VfR is ready to work seriously this season towards the ascent. The fans can hope for an exciting time in the stadium and the signs are good that the coming season will be a big step forward.
