Augsburg Sign Fortuna Düsseldorf Midfielder Sima Suso

Bundesliga club FC Augsburg have completed the signing of promising midfielder Sima Suso from Fortuna Düsseldorf, adding another young talent to their squad ahead of the new season.

The 21-year-old arrives after gaining valuable experience in Germany’s second division. Last season, Suso made 24 appearances in Bundesliga 2 for Fortuna Düsseldorf, showcasing his versatility and maturity despite his young age. Earlier in his career, he also featured in the 3. Liga with Hansa Rostock, continuing his steady development in German football.

Augsburg’s sporting director Benjamin Weber expressed his excitement over the signing, praising Suso’s ability to play in multiple midfield positions.

“Sima has a very exciting skillset. He can play in a number of positions and already has plenty of competitive experience despite his young age. The fact that he featured regularly in Bundesliga 2 last season underlines both his potential and his quality,” Weber said.

Suso is expected to add depth and flexibility to Augsburg’s midfield as the club prepares for the 2026-27 Bundesliga campaign. His arrival aligns with Augsburg’s strategy of investing in young players with high potential and developing them into first-team regulars.

The move also represents a significant step forward in Suso’s career, giving him the opportunity to prove himself in Germany’s top flight after impressing in the lower divisions. Augsburg fans will now be eager to see how the talented midfielder adapts to the demands of Bundesliga football.
