WSG Tirol has responded to an injury crisis in its defense by signing 24-year-old German Jonas David. The central defender had been on loan from Hamburger SV to Hansa Rostock last season. 

His contract with HSV was then terminated in September, making David available on a free transfer as a non-contract player. The 1.92-meter man played a total of four games for Germany's U20 team.

"Although no transfers were currently planned, the absence of David Gugganig and Osarenren Okungbowa due to injury prompted us to react. Jonas gives the coaching team and the squad additional quality and therefore additional options," said WSG sports director Stefan Köck.
