VfB Stuttgart: Hoeneß in focus - Dortmund's coaching carousel turns!

VfB Stuttgart faces a decisive phase in relation to the future of head coach Sebastian Hoeneß. The 41-year-old, who was appointed to the top of the team in April 2023, achieved remarkable successes, including the relegation and the runner-up championship. Stuttgart is currently taking fourth place in the Bundesliga after the loss of three regular players-Hiroki Ito, Waldemar Anton and Serhou Guirassy-and still has opportunities for the qualification for the Champions League play-offs.

Last week Borussia Dortmund trained coach Nuri Şahin. After four defeats in a row, the BVB has an unsatisfactory table and is currently in tenth. The club has started looking for a new trainer, whereby Hoeneß is being one of the possible successors. In addition to him, other names such as Erik Ten Hag, Roger Schmidt and José Mourinho are also discussed. According to voice.de might have his contract at stuttgart for about five to six million euros left, but only on the condition that the new association is playing internationally.

rumors about Hoeneß and Dortmund

The Situation could complicate itself if you consider that Borussia Dortmund is striving for a champions League qualification. If the association does not achieve this, a change from Hoeneß would be unlikely. According to Fabian Wohlgemuth, the sports director of VfB, the club reacts calmly to the rumors about Hoeneß. He emphasizes that Hoeneß does excellent work on the Neckar and a long -term cooperation is likely. Wohlgemuth and Hoeneß are currently working together and have achieved positive results in the last games.

The discussion about change of coaches is not new in German football. Historically, VfB Stuttgart has the highest number of coaches in the Bundesliga with a total of 52 layoffs since 2012. Hoeneß acquired a point cut of 1.96 in 79 games for Stuttgart, which underlines its previous services. These trends show the inconsistent structures at many Bundesliga clubs and the frequent changes at the top, which are often triggered by sporting failures and increasing expectations, such as Fussballfieber.de describes.
