With the end of Urs Fischer (57) as union-Trainer begins a mammoth task for manager Oliver Ruhnert (51).
He has to find a successor for the popular Swiss who can, on the one hand, lead a well-known squad through the relegation battle and, on the other hand, initiate a personnel change in the winter.
The profile is therefore called: Experience. On Wednesday there were rumors about Oliver Glasner (49). The ex-Frankfurt coach won the Europa League in 2022.
The Austrian has proven that he can form a unit from a wide variety of characters. And he presented himself excellently with Eintracht in international competition. The Köpenickers also hope to be able to continue in the Europa League after being eliminated from the Champions League.
Oliver Glasner was coach of Eintracht Frankfurt from 2021 until the summer of this year
Glasner is currently without a club, recently had an offer from Saudi Arabia and is said to have been on the shortlist for Olympique Lyon. Is he the right one for the Iron Men?
The end of an era This is how Urs Fischer separated
The club was already busy looking for a coach on Wednesday. Numerous consultants called Ruhnert to ask what coaching profile the club was looking for.
It became clear: Union is at the beginning of his search. There was hope that Fischer would turn things around until the end.
