Ghana international Patric Pfeiffer has officially joined Bundesliga outfit Augsburg after leaving Darmstadt as a free agent.

The central defender signs a four-year deal with the club which will seem his contract come to an end in June 2027.

Pfeiffer was instrumental in Darmstadt gaining promotion to the German top flight at the end of the 2022/23 Bundesliga 2 season. The 23-year-old scored four goals and provided one assist in 24 appearances in the league as his side secured automatic promotion.

However, the defender won't play in the Bundesliga with the newly-promoted side as he has joined Augsburg following the expiration of his contract.

The club confirmed the signing of the Ghanaian on their official social media handles announcing he has put pen to paper until 2027.

"I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the last 4 years and especially for your incredible support during this time," he wrote on his Instagram page earlier this week as he bid farewell to the club.

Pfeiffer led Darmstadt in interceptions (40) and finished as the third top scorer in the just-ended season.
