Malte Karbstein had probably imagined things differently: After the Kickers Offenbach player trained as a guest at FC Hansa Rostock, his club parted ways with him without further ado.

Kicked out after illegal training: Kickers Offenbach ends cooperation with central defender Malte Karbstein. The 24-year-old had previously been on the training ground at FC Hans Rostock for a trial session without his club’s permission.

Short, compact, clear

Disregard of direct instructions: The Kickers had expressly agreed with Karbstein that he should appear at the start of his club’s training. Instead, the defender went to Hansa coaching, which the Baltic Sea club made public on Twitter.

Clear opinion of the Offenbach bosses: According to Kickers managing director Matthias Georg, Karbstein’s behavior does not testify to professionalism. The young player “did himself no favors with this unacceptable action”. Accordingly, “this is not a basis for further cooperation”.
