Laurin Curda (born 30 October 2001) is a German professional footballer who plays as a centre-back for 2. Bundesliga club SC Paderborn. [1]
Curda came through the youth systems of VfB Stuttgart and 1899 Hoffenheim. [2] In the 2022–23 season he won the Württemberg Cup with Regionalliga Südwest side TSG Balingen. [3]
He left TSG Balingen in summer 2023 to join 2. Bundesliga club SC Paderborn. [2] [4] He had a good first season with Paderborn, [5] making 20 appearances including 16 as a starter in the 2. Bundesliga. [6]
Ahead of the 2024–25 season, Curda faced competition for a position in Paderborn's defence from Marcel Hoffmeier und Visar Musliu and new signings Felix Götze and Tjark Schelle. [6]
On December 13, he scored his first ever double in a 4-0 away win at Karlsruher SC. [7]
In September 2024 Paderborn manager Lukas Kwasniok highlighted Curda's strengths: "Laurin actually has everything a centre-back needs. He can dribble and head, he has power and pace. Laurin may not be a giant, but he's very stable. And he can play extremely well out the back.", naming "securing his own back" as a weakness of Curda. [6]
