FC St. Pauli

FC St. Pauli have handed a senior professional contract to Romeo Aigbekaen. The striker has run out for the Under-23s thus far but has been a regular member of the training group in recent months and featured in the Bundesliga squad for the first time against Werder Bremen.

FC St. Pauli lost 2-1 at Eintracht Braunschweig on Sunday in a friendly behind closed doors. The second-division outfit took the lead on the half-hour through a Manolis Saliakas own goal, but Under-23 forward Romeo Aigbekaen equalised almost immediately. Robin Krauße grabbed the winner for the home side four minutes from time.
