German midfielder Anton Bäuerle (21) is moving from Paderborn’s second team to 1. FC Saarbrücken. Bäuerle terminated his contract early on Sunday. After Paderborn’s promotion, his chances of making appearances above the Regionalliga had decreased. In the 2024/25 season, Bäuerle made four appearances in the 2. Bundesliga. Anton Bäuerle says that FCS is a club with great tradition and a special atmosphere, and that for him, the move is an exciting challenge and a great opportunity to continue developing both athletically and personally. Bäuerle, who has been capped once for the Germany U19 team, made 12 appearances and provided one assist in the Regionalliga West during the 2025/2026 season. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €200k.
