Felix Heim and Marco Stefandl: Contracts at SpVgg Bayreuth extended!

SpVgg Bayreuth is making headlines again! On June 18, 2025, the club announced that two key players, Felix Heim and Marco Stefandl, had extended their contracts. This decision not only brings joy to the team, but also to the fans, who appreciate the achievements of the two players. Thanks to their noticeable identification with the club, they contribute to the stability of the team.

Felix Heim

has been playing for Bayreuth since July 2024 and is known for his fast play, creative wit and goal threat. Marco Stefandl, who has been part of the team since the 2023/24 season, has also established himself through his consistent performances. Head coach Lukas Kling was confident about the extensions and emphasized the advantages of the players. “We can rely on Felix and Marco, they are real top performers,” said Kling in an official statement.

A positive development for the club

Dr. Nicole Kalemba, the managing director of SpVgg Bayreuth, sees the contract extensions as an important signal for the continuity and development potential of the team. “These decisions are a step in the right direction and represent the sporting stability that we strive for,” she emphasized.

With this positive news behind them, SpVgg Bayreuth is also concerned with further strengthening the team. New to the squad is Lukas Quirin, who will now play in central midfield. The 25-year-old is moving from regional league team FC 08 Homburg and brings a lot of experience with him - he has played 39 competitive games since summer 2023. Quirin, who was previously active at 1. FC Saarbrücken and 1. FSV Mainz 05 II, was enthusiastic about his move to Bayreuth and the discussions with those responsible.

A breath of fresh air between the posts

There is also a new addition in goal: Maurice Dehler will be the new goalkeeper for SpVgg Bayreuth. The 21-year-old keeper comes from FC Ingolstadt 04 and enjoyed his football training at the FC Bayern Campus. Head coach Kling is optimistic and describes Dehler as a highly talented goalkeeper with excellent training.

In the big picture

With these commitments and contract extensions, SpVgg Bayreuth is strengthening its ambitions for the coming season. The combination of experienced players and fresh talent could prove to be just the right recipe for sporting success. A good plan, there's something there! Thomas Müller always says “Don’t give up right away…” and that will also be evident at SpVgg Bayreuth.
