Regensburg and Coach Patz Call It Quits Ahead of the Season's End
Regensburg and coach Patz decide to split ways prior to the final match of the season - Regensburg and Coach Patz ending their partnership ahead of the final game of the season.
Here's the scoop:
Regensburg's coach, Andreas Patz, has bid adieu due to some personal business. The parting is friendly, having arisen from candid chats between Patz and the club's management. The discussions and a critical assessment of the season led them to conclude that a fresh start in the third league was needed, given the team's impending relegation. Patz played a major role in securing the team's promotion to the second division, but personal matters prevailed, prompting an early departure[1].
The remaining league games against Karlsruher SC and SV Darmstadt 98 will be led by current assistant coach Munier Raychouni, who steps up as interim boss.
Patz took over Regensburg as interim coach following Joe Enochs' departure and the team's drubbing by 1. FC Nürnberg. He was later given the top job in late November with a contract that lasted until the season's end.
As per sporting director Achim Beierlorzer, "Post-Cologne game, we had a deep, honest, and critical talk with Andi Patz. After a comprehensive season analysis, we mutually agreed to part ways." The team lost to Cologne last weekend, mathematically securing their relegation[2].
Beierlorzer further mentioned, "We aim to forge a new chapter in the 3. Liga with a refreshed perspective and an improved coaching team." Patz requested the club to end his contract early, which the board granted[1].
