Marvin Höner (born 4 May 1994) is a German professional footballer who plays for Jong Ajax as a striker.
Club career
Arminia Bielefeld
Born in Bielefeld, Höner is an academy product of local 2. Bundesliga club Arminia Bielefeld. He played for the club's A-Juniors team in the 2012–13 Under 19 Bundesliga season, scoring ten goals in 12 matches.[1] His performances for his club as well as for the German national under-19 team drew attention from several clubs, including Ajax.[2] He was invited to a trial by Ajax and played for the Ajax A1 team in the annual Copa Amsterdam, scoring once.[3]
Ajax
On 24 June 2013, Höner signed a two-year contract with Ajax.[4] With a year remaining on his contract with Arminia Bielefeld, an undisclosed transfer fee between the two clubs was agreed.[5] It was later revealed that the fee was €150.000 (an initial €50.000 payment, and an additional €100.000 when Höner breaks into the first team). Arminia Bielefeld will also receive a further €100.000, should Ajax decide to sell the striker.[6] Höner is the fifth German player to sign for Ajax.[7][8][nb 1]
During the 2013–14 pre-season, Höner made his first appearance as a 63rd-minute substitute for Ajax in a 3–0 friendly match win over De Graafschap on 13 July 2013.[9] On 5 August 2013, he made his professional debut for the reserves team Jong Ajax in a 2–0 Eerste Divisie victory over Telstar.[10]
International career
Höner made his debut for the German national under-19 team in a 3–0 friendly match win over France on 14 November 2012. His second appearance came in a 1–0 away loss to Italy on 6 February 2013.
