It looks like Hannover 96 has found their new manager - and he's none other than the offensive-minded Christian Titz, currently of 1. FC Magdeburg. According to Kicker, Titz is already in Lower Saxony and expected to sign his contract with Hannover 96 today.
Titz, 54 years old, is no stranger to the German football scene. Before his time at Magdeburg, he coached Hamburg SV, where his influence on youth development and modern football philosophies were notable. Titz's success in Magdeburg cannot be underestimated; he guided them from a relegation battle in the 3rd division to the top of the 2nd Bundesliga in four and a half years.
Hannover 96 has faced terms of missed promotion to the Bundesliga for six consecutive seasons. Last year saw three different coaches at the club - Stefan Leitl, André Breitenreiter, and Lars Barlemann. Titz's continuity and attacking style are expected to breathe new life into the team's efforts to clinch a spot in the Bundesliga.
