Friedl added: “Whilst being at Werder I’ve developed into a Bundesliga player and I’ve been able to make over 100 appearances for the first team. I’m excited to carry on my journey with Werder and will do everything I can to help us achieve our sporting goals next year and re-establish ourselves in the Bundesliga.”

The Austria international has played 112 games in all competitions for Werder Bremen and had attracted interest from both the Bundesliga and Champions League clubs.

Friedl’s new deal would be until at least 2025.
