Mainz 05 has made an important decision for the upcoming season by reaching a new contract agreement with Silas Katompa Mvumpa. The forward will continue to play for FSV Mainz 05 next season. The exact details of the contract duration have not been disclosed by the Bundesliga club. Previously, an extension option had lapsed unused in March, but now a new agreement has been found. Silas remains a 05ER! The Congolese player transferred from VfB Stuttgart to Mainz in the winter for around 500,000 euros. In his first eight competitive matches, he scored one goal before being sidelined by a serious injury. In the Round of 16 of the Europa Conference League against Sigma Olomouc, the 27-year-old broke his left shin and calf bone. Silas expressed his gratitude for the club's support: "I am very thankful to the Mainz 05 management for immediately signaling maximum support to me. For me, it is now mainly about doing everything I can to get back on the pitch as quickly as possible." This positive development shows that Mainz 05 is on the right track to strengthen the team for the upcoming season.
