Patrick Pentz joins Brøndby IF on loan
Austrian keeper Patrick Pentz is leaving Bayer 04 Leverkusen to join top-flight Danish club Brøndby IF on loan for a season.
Bayer 04 signed the 26-year-old from Ligue 1 Stade Reims at the start of the year as a replacement for the then number two keeper Andrey Lunev who was sidelined with a long-term back injury.
"Patrick is at the best age for a professional player and we can well understand his desire for more games as a number one keeper," said Bayer 04 sporting managing director Simon Rolfes. "He has been a perfect back-up to Lukas Hradecky over the past few months. But Patrick is ambitious and wants to play – also looking forward to the European Championships in Germany next year." The Austria international's contract with the Werkself runs to 30 June 2025.
