04.05.2025

After nine years at SC Freiburg and 15 years in German professional football, Manuel Gulde will hang up his boots this summer. Following spells with TSG Hoffenheim, SC Paderborn and Karlsruher SC, Gulde made a total of 183 competitive appearances for SC, scoring seven goals.

Gulde has struggled with a back injury throughout this season and hasn't played any minutes as a result. "I've known since November and came to the decision fairly quickly in the end. It's been a very challenging year for me not playing any games, but I can look back at my career with pride, the way I've overcome challenges and fought back from injuries. It's not a given spending nine years at a club like this, but now I'm looking forward to the next chapter in my life," said Gulde.
