Max Besuschkow has joined FC Ingolstadt from Hannover 96. The 27-year-old central midfielder is anticipated to be the solution for central midfield. FCI introduced Besuschkow late on Monday evening, just before the transfer window closed in the 3. Liga. Besuschkow had no prospects in the professional team of Hannover 96 and instead played twice in the third division team of Niedersachsen. FCI's CEO Dietmar Beiersdorfer praised Besuschkow's experience and ball-handling skills, expressing confidence that he will provide additional stability and more structure to their build-up play. No further details about the transfer fee and contract modalities were disclosed.

Hannover 96 announced the transfer of Max Besuschkow to FC Ingolstadt at 10 PM. The transfer window for the Bundesliga and 2. Liga closed on Friday at 8 PM, but transfers to the 3. Liga were still possible until 11:59 PM on Monday. Initially, it seemed like Besuschkow would stay, but by the evening, all parties had reached an agreement. Besuschkow will now play for FC Ingolstadt in the 3. Liga, under the management of Sabrina Wittmann, the first female head coach in German men's football. Besuschkow's salary at Hannover was around 40,000 Euros per month, which is expected to be halved at Ingolstadt. Hannover 96 will pay him a severance package.

Max Besuschkow has a small hope for an international transfer, as the transfer window in Switzerland is still open for one more week.
