Bayern Munich have recalled 21-year-old striker Armindo Sieb from second tier Greuther Fürth and sent him on loan to Bundesliga rivals Mainz for two seasons, the club said on Monday.
Bayern have exercised their option to re-sign Sieb after he was allowed to join Fürth in 2022. He has received a new contract in Munich until 2027.
He was top scorer for Fürth last season with 12 goals.
"We always followed Armindo closely during his two years in Fürth. He developed very well, especially last season - he was one of the top scorers in the second division in his age group," explained Bayern sporting director Christoph Freund.
"Armindo is an extremely fast, aggressive type of player. He certainly fits in very well with Mainz with his manner and the Bundesliga is now the next logical step for him."
