Hamburg Sea Devils re-sign Top-Receiver Jean-Claude Madin Cerezo

The Hamburg Sea Devils have extended their contract with Jean-Claude Madin Cerezo for the upcoming 2022 season. The receiver brings the necessary experience and ability to compete in the best European league - the European League of Football. In the process, the wideout has traveled around the world once in his career. Fellow player Aleksandr Astahin brought the then 16-year-old to football training with the Young Huskies Hamburg. "JC" or "Jonny", as the German receiver is also known, has already been able to gain important college experience both in Mexico and in the USA, most recently being invited to the NFL International Combine in 2019.

The 29-year-old son of a Spaniard and a Cameroonian was the Sea Devils' leading wide receiver with 372 yards and six touchdowns and one of the most important offensive weapons last season. The Hamburg native is now looking to build on last season, saying, "As a Hamburg boy, there were no other options, nor any desire to play anywhere else! '040NoPasaNada'," Madin Cerezo describes his connection to his hometown.

"With Jonny, we are keeping a strong football player who can always bring us forward with his many years of playing experience. Jonny also gives us more depth on offense, which we will definitely need in the coming year. Lamar, Benni, Jean and Jonny will give us a lot of joy," Offensive Coordinator Kirk Heidelberg said of the contract extension.
