Exclusive Scoop: Could Christian Groß be Heading Back to SV Werder Bremen as Assistant Coach?
Werder seeks to dismiss Gross from his assistant coaching position - Werder considers reinstating Groß as joint head coach
Hey there!
Rumors are circulating that Bundesliga team Werder Bremen might be welcoming back former pro, Christian Groß, as an assistant coach. According to the multimedia portal "Deichstube", this seems to be the preferred choice for the second assistant position under head coach Horst Steffen. However, with the team's training camp set to begin on July 7, there are still a few details to work out before things are official.
Recently, it was announced that Horst Steffen would be the new coach for Werder Bremen, replacing Ole Werner. A few days following, it was revealed that his assistant, Raphael Duarte, would be joining him from Elversberg. Christian Vander will remain with the club as the goalkeeper coach.
In the past few weeks, there's been a buzz about potential assistant coach candidates at the Weser. Names like Christian Schulz, Nelson Valdez, and Ömer Toprak have been tossed around. But here's the twist – Christian Groß, who played for Werder's second team and later became a regular with the pros from 2018 to 2024, started his scouting career with league rivals Bayer 04 Leverkusen after retiring from playing.
Keep in mind, no current status or negotiation details about Christian Groß's return as assistant coach at SV Werder Bremen are confirmed. According to the latest data, he is listed as uncontracted and not attached to a coaching position at Werder Bremen[1]. So, stay tuned for updates on this possible reunion!
