Mannheim (dpa / lsw) – Backcourt player Albin Lagergren will leave the handball Bundesliga club Rhein-Neckar Löwen after the season and return to the German champions SC Magdeburg. The two clubs announced this on Friday. “We had some talks and made it clear that we would like to extend him,” said Löwen managing director Jennifer Kettemann. The development of the Swede under coach Sebastian Hinze is “very pleasing”. But you have to accept your decision.
“The basis of my decision was that I not only had the best for me as a handball player in mind, but the best for us as a family,” said Lagergren. The 30-year-old has scored 49 goals in twelve games for the lions this season. He was already under contract in Magdeburg from 2018 to 2020.
