Aachen's Alemannia Commences Without Head Coach, Introduces New Players
Gearing Up for the New Season: Alemannia Aachen Without a New Head Coach
Alemannia Aachen, fresh off Heiner Backhaus' sudden departure to Eintracht Braunschweig, kicks off their preparation for the upcoming season minus a new boss. The initial training session was overseen by co-trainer Ilyas Trenz, with U19 coach Carsten Wissing offering temporary assistance. The team's technical director, Erdal Celik, guarantees a decision on the head coach position in the days to come.
Rumors swirl about potential replacements for Backhaus, who brought Aachen to the 3. Liga, with names like Sascha Hildmann (Preußen Münster) and Eugen Polanski (Borussia Mönchengladbach II) being tossed around. However, both candidates are reportedly unavailable, leaving Ismail Atalan, Ugur Incecan, and Dimitrios Grammozis as possible contenders.
** Joing Forces: Alemannia Aachen and Joel da Silva Kiala**
With the head coach situation yet to be resolved, Alemannia Aachen continues to strengthen their squad. Joel da Silva Kiala, a 21-year-old defender hailing from Frankfurt's U21 team, joins the club, and Celik believes he'll be more than just a promising prospect. Kiala boasts impressive roots at Hertha BSC's youth academy and valuable experience from three years in the Regionalliga.
Securing Key Players: Olschowsky and Castelle
Despite the ongoing head coach drama, Alemannia is working diligently to secure the services of goalkeeper Jan Olschowsky on loan from Borussia Mönchengladbach and extend Niklas Castelle's loan from SSV Ulm. Negotiations are underway, with a positive outcome seemingly in reach, though no agreement has been reached as of yet.
Among the new additions to Alemannia Aachen, Joel da Silva Kiala, Jeremias Lorch, Matti Wagner, Fabio Torsiello, Kwasi Wriedt, and Valmir Sulejmani have all joined the team. However, further adjustments may be on the horizon as the sale of Soufiane El-Faouzi to FC Schalke 04 for around 200,000 euros increases the club's financial flexibility. The new head coach will likely play a significant role in finalizing any additional transfers.
The Journey Ahead:
The search for a new head coach continues as Alemannia Aachen sets its sights on the new season. With promising new additions like Joel da Silva Kiala, the team is poised for success, but a solid leader at the helm could prove crucial to their continued progress. Stay tuned for updates on the head coach position and the ongoing squad shaping at Alemannia Aachen.
