NAME: Marc-Oliver Kempf
Born in: Lich (Germany), on 28/01/1995
ROLE: defender
TEAM: Como
The situation related to Varane has forced Como to return to the market, purchasing Marc-Oliver Kempf from Hertha Berlin.
It will be the first experience away from Germany for the 1995-born centre-back. In his homeland he played for teams such as Eintracht Frankfurt, Freiburg, Stuttgart and finally Hertha Berlin with whom in the last two seasons he scored 5 goals in 75 appearances in Bundesliga 2. In the top Teutonic series he played 153 appearances with 10 goals and 3 assists, while in the second division he recorded 77 appearances, 11 goals and 6 assists. He boasts 7 appearances and 1 goal in the German U21 national team with which he won the European Championship in the category in 2017.
Kempf is a central defender who can also be used as a midfielder. He is a very dangerous player on set pieces, with very high statistics in the past seasons.
Fantasy football advice: he will compete for a place next to Dossena with Goldaniga, and in the long run he could become a starter. Given his propensity for goals, we recommend him as a last-slot bet.
