Martijn Kaars, a Dutch forward, has been signed by 1. FC Magdeburg from Helmond Sport. He scored 21 goals and provided 2 assists in 38 games last season, finishing second in the top scorers' list. The club hopes he can replicate his scoring form.

Martijn Kaars is one of the new signings at 1. FC Magdeburg. He expressed his excitement about playing in the 2. Bundesliga in Germany, considering it the right next step for him.

Martijn Kaars (25) transfers from the Dutch second division club Helmond Sport to 1. FC Magdeburg. Kaars, who played in the youth teams for Ajax Amsterdam, scored 21 goals in 38 games last season and provided two assists, securing second place in the top scorers list. FCM sporting director Otmar Schork expressed his satisfaction with the signing, stating, "We are very happy that we have secured Martijn, our desired player for the attack, at the start of training." Coach Christian Titz also commented on the successful signing, praising Kaars as a very dynamic and fast player who scored many goals last season.

1. FC Magdeburg is reportedly interested in Martijn Kaars (25) as a replacement for the departed Luca Schuler. The Dutchman is still under contract with the second division club Helmond Sport until 2025. With 21 goals in 38 games, the center forward trained at Ajax Amsterdam fits exactly into the search grid of the Bördestadt. Talks, including about a transfer fee, are said to have already taken place.
