"There have been so many occasions in the past where Christian’s sporting and personal qualities were rightly highlighted," said sporting director Klemens Hartenbach. 

"He would probably say: ‘Enough talking, let’s get on with it!’ What’s remarkable is that Christian shows no signs of slowing down in any area. We’re thrilled!"

Günter, Freiburg’s record appearance holder with 453 matches for the club, added:

“I’m still very hungry, and there’s nothing better than playing for SC Freiburg. As a team, we are successful this season as well – and we want to continue that. I’m looking forward to all the challenges ahead.”
