3. SV Sandhausen's Rebuild: Olaf Janßen Steps Up as New Coach
Tactical Revamp: Janßen Assumes Control at SV Sandhausen - Management shake-up: Janssen assumes leadership of SV Sandhausen
Get ready for a fresh start at SV Sandhausen! After a tough season that led to relegation, the club is counting on veteran coach Olaf Janßen to spearhead their strategic comeback. Janßen, departing from Viktoria Köln, will take over from Dennis Diekmeier and Gerhard Kleppinger, who couldn't hold the team's position in the table.
Fifty-eight-year-old Janßen, having announced his exit from the cathedral city in January, will be officially introduced after the Baden state cup final on May 24, according to the club announcement. We'll hear more about the sports department's direction at the appropriate time. The new sporting director's position is yet to be filled.
"The right man for the job"
SVS president Jürgen Machmeier shared, "Our analysis led us to the perfect coaching profile, and we're confident that with Olaf Janßen, we'll find our way back to our lost identity." Janßen, a coach known for developing young players, thinks long-term, and is no stranger to the requirements of a structural rebuild, as stated.
At Viktoria Köln, Janßen spent nearly four and a half years, during which he built a formidable team. In his career, he's coached powerhouses like Dynamo Dresden, VfB Stuttgart, and FC St. Pauli. He's also worked as an assistant coach for VfL Wolfsburg and Hertha BSC alongside Bruno Labbadia.
