David Kramer bids farewell to Real Madrid, signs with Crvena Zvezda until 2029

German international David Kramer is leaving Real Madrid after one season to join Serbian powerhouse Crvena Zvezda (Red Star Belgrade) on a two-year deal. The 29-year-old forward announced his departure from the Spanish club on Wednesday, with both teams confirming the transfer on their official websites.

Kramer joined Real Madrid last season, appearing in 14 EuroLeague games and 30 Liga Endesa matches. During his tenure, he averaged 6.7 points per game and shot 41% from three-point range in the domestic league. Real Madrid expressed gratitude for his professionalism, commitment, and dedication throughout the past season, wishing him and his family the best in his new chapter.

This move marks a return to high-level European competition for Kramer, who previously played in the EuroLeague with Bayern Munich in 2021. His career in Spain also includes stints with Granada and La Laguna Tenerife. The Belgrade club, now coached by former Unicaja Malaga coach Ibon Navarro, welcomed Kramer, highlighting his attributes: "He measures 196 centimeters, is distinguished by an excellent shot, a solid game, and great energy on the court. Welcome to the team David," the club announced on social media.

Kramer was a key member of the German national team that secured the gold medal at the 2023 FIBA World Cup, adding significant international prestige to his career. His addition is expected to bolster Crvena Zvezda's roster for the upcoming season.
