Schwolow kept a clean sheet while making a save during Sunday's 5-0 win over Hamburg.
Analysis: Schwolow helped Mainz to all three points by blanking Hamburg on Sunday. The keeper was called into duty due to an injury to Robin Zentner in the buildup to the match. Pending Zentner's status, Schwolow could remain in goal for next week's clash with Frankfurt.
Signs with Mainz
Schwolow has signed with Mainz from Scottish runners up Heart of Midlothian, according to the club, with an agreement in place allowing him to first complete Hearts' two remaining Champions League qualifying matches before joining his new teammates in preseason training on July 30.
Analysis: Schwolow brings over 200 Bundesliga appearances to Mainz along with experience in the 2. Bundesliga, DFB Pokal and Scottish Premiership, and just completed a strong season with Hearts that saw the club fall narrowly short of the Scottish title. The 34 year old goalkeeper, born near Mainz, gives the club a proven and experienced option between the posts as it prepares for the new Bundesliga 2026/27 campaign.
