Carlsen stays with the St. Pauli

Thanks to the help of Magnus Carlsen and his “Viking” friends, FC St. Pauli was able to stay in the German Bundesliga in the 2024/25 season. During his appearance for St. Pauli, Carlsen also made headlines beyond the chess world. The cult club has now announced that the world’s best chess player will continue to wear the club’s colors next year. | Photo: André Schulz
