Alexander Schwolow, born on 2 June 1992 (age 34), is a German goalkeeper with Mainz 05. At 6ft 3in (1.90m), he is an imposing presence, and he wears the number 1 shirt at his current club.
Schwolow’s senior league career was underway at Freiburg in 2013-14, when he made a Bundesliga appearance. That early Freiburg period set the base for a career built around steady goalkeeping rather than noise, which is usually no bad thing in that position.
He is now with Mainz 05, where he has made four Bundesliga appearances in 2026-27. His current market value is around £383,000, according to Transfermarkt.
Schwolow’s career has been that of an established German goalkeeper, moving from his Freiburg beginnings to Mainz with a solid top-flight profile and a role still active in the Bundesliga.
