Dennis Geiger in talks over new Hoffenheim deal

Hoffenheim midfielder Dennis Geiger has confirmed that he is discussing a new contract with the Bundesliga outfit.

The 24-year-old is a product of the Hoffenheim youth setup and made his first-team debut in 2017.

The defensive midfielder has since made 89 Bundesliga appearances, scoring six goals and providing 11 assists.

Geiger's current contract is due to expire at the end of the season, but he is confident a new contract will be thrashed out before too long.

"We are in talks," Geiger told Kicker.

"I feel extremely comfortable at Hoffenheim, I don't need to repeat that every two weeks.

"Everyone who works more closely with me here knows how much I enjoy what I do and how much fun I have with the team and the staff.

"In the past, it was always my goal to play for Bayern Munich, Dortmund or even in the Premier League and win title

"But when you suffer so many injury setbacks, I'm mainly just happy that I've fought my way back like this and that I can still play football at this level at all."
