Zwick rose to prominence in his youth after winning the starting spot at Dundee United aged just 21, making 17 appearances in the Scottish Premiership. Following the arrival of Japanese international Eiji Kawashima, Zwick moved to German 3. Liga club Hansa Rostock. With playing time limited, he joined Hertha Berlin II on loan and in 2018, parted ways with Rostock and transferred to Regionalliga Nordost side, FSV Optik Rathenow.[1]

Early life

Born in Berlin, Germany, Zwick played for Teltower FV 1913, a youth football team, from the age of seven. Zwick began his career as a left midfielder, before becoming a goalkeeper in 2007. He moved to Hertha 03 Zehlendorf in 2009.

Playing career

Zwick signed for his first professional football club in 2014, playing for the development squad of Dundee United as an amateur. In 2015, he signed a professional contract with the club.[2] He made his senior début on 2 August 2015, in a 1–0 loss to Aberdeen in the opening match of the 2014–15 Scottish Premiership season. On 8 August, Zwick kept a clean sheet in a 2–0 away win against Motherwell, on his second appearance for United.

Zwick was released by Dundee United when his contract expired at the end of the 2016-17 season.[3] Returning to Germany, he signed for 3. Liga club Hansa Rostock in June 2017.[4] Only two months later and without having earned a cap, he left Rostock and joined fourth tier side Hertha BSC II on a season-long loan.[5]
