Reading the Hamburg–Mainz 05 connection

Jeffrey Bruma, Nigel de Jong, Eric-Maxim Choupo-Moting are among the names recorded at both clubs. These are career links: the players need not have moved directly between the two clubs.

The latest year among these records is 2026, for Ransford Königsdörffer. This is a snapshot date within a career record, not confirmation of the player’s current club.

Use the years to distinguish an early career spell from a later return. A merged year range can span separate spells; consult the underlying record before treating it as continuous first-team service.

Use the pairing as a football quiz

Try to name one connection before looking at the table, then compare your answer. In a shared-player duel, the challenge is to recall a valid name before your opponent. This web archive is a reference snapshot, not a guarantee about today’s live game pool.
