The 2011–12 season of Hannover 96 began on 26 June with their first friendly match.

Off-season[]

Christian Pander of Schalke 04 became the first official signing of Hannover's 2011–12 season. The next two signings were Polonia Warszawa forward Artur Sobiech and Norwegen Henning Hauger. The remaining signings were Daniel Royer and Samuel Radlinger from SV Ried. Hannover brought Deniz Aycicek and Erdal Akdarı from the youth setup.

After losing his starter's spot, goalkeeper Florian Fromlowitz departed for DFB-Pokal runners-up MSV Duisburg.[1] Constant Djakpa finished his loan and returned to Bayer Leverkusen,[2] while American DaMarcus Beasley left after one season to join Mexican club Puebla[3] after an injury-struck season left him surplus to requirements.

During January, Hannover 96 signed Mame Biram Diouf from Manchester United for a reported £1.5 million on a two-year deal.[4] He made his debut against Hertha BSC as a substitute, then started his first game in a Hannover shirt against Mainz 05.
