TSG Hoffenheim confirmed on Thursday that Arthur Chaves has been loaned to FC Augsburg until the end of the season. According to consistent media reports, there is a purchase option for FC Augsburg after the loan. The reason for the loan is his low playing time, as Arthur Chaves was no longer a regular starter under coach Christian Ilzer and had made only four Bundesliga appearances this season. Andreas Schicker, TSG managing director, stated that Arthur is a great team player and character. Schicker added that Chaves had little playing time in the first half of the season, so the loan to Augsburg is a sensible solution for all parties.
