In addition to the 31-year-old Gießelmann, St. Pauli also has Brooklyn Ezeh on the list. Ten years younger and playing two classes lower at SV Wehen-Wiesbaden, the native of Hamburg would be the promising alternative to the seasoned Bundesliga professional. Ezeh is still tied to Hessen until 2024, while Gießelmann’s contract with Union expires in the summer.
