SV Sandhausen Undergoes Strategic Overhaul with Janssen at Helm - Tactical overhaul: Janssen assumes command at SV Sandhausen
Tucked away in the doldrums of the third division, relegated SV Sandhausen is pinning their hopes on seasoned coach Olaf Janssen. The 58-year-old veteran is steering in from Viktoria Köln, assuming the reins from Dennis Diekmeier and Gerhard Kleppinger, who failed to keep SVS away from the second-to-last place in the table.
Janssen, who had declared his departure from the cathedral city in January, will officially become the face of the club post the Baden state cup final on May 24. "When the time is right," unprecedented details about the team's direction in the sporting arena will also be revealed. The identity of the new sporting director remains a mystery.
"The perfect fit"
SVS president Jürgen Machmeier stated adamantly, "We identified this coach as the perfect fit. He's the right man, and we believe that we can restore our lost identity with Olaf Janssen." A coach adept at developing youth and thinking long-term, Janssen also has a knack for understanding the intricacies of a structural rebuild.
Janssen can be noted for his twelve-year tenure with Viktoria Köln, where he displayed exceptional leadership. From his coaching resume, he's also held positions at Dynamo Dresden, VfB Stuttgart, and FC St. Pauli, and briefly collaborated as a co-trainer under Bruno Labbadia at VfL Wolfsburg and Hertha BSC.
