liga. When Cheyne last spoke to the Sun, he had just arrived home from Sweden in March 2020 after the league there halted due to the COVID pandemic. Last season he had moved to the Diez Limberg Rockets in the German Oberliga, where he scored 36 goals and added 21 assists in 37 games. Deggendorf’s Director of Sports, Thomas Greilinger, was happy to have Matheson aboard. “It was important to us that we get a player who has experience in Europe and especially in Germany,”, said Greilinger. “With Cheyne, we get a striker who is always good for a goal, who is currently in great demand, but is hard to find on the market. We are therefore very happy that the commitment worked.” Matheson is expected to make his debut with Deggendorf on January 14.
