Union Berlin has appointed Danish coach Bo Svensson as their new manager, following his resignation from Mainz in November. Svensson, who played for Mainz from 2007 to 2014, expressed his excitement about the opportunity and is looking forward to the challenges that lie ahead.
In an interview, Svensson mentioned that he has been monitoring Union Berlin for a while and believes that the club’s unity and togetherness will contribute to their success. He believes that his experience playing for Mainz under coaches Jurgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel has prepared him for this new managerial role.
Union Berlin made the decision to dismiss coach Nenad Bjelica with two games left in the season, after narrowly avoiding relegation. In addition to the coaching changes, Union Berlin also announced a shift in their management structure. Oliver Ruhnert will step down as managing director, with Horst Heldt taking over the role. On the field, the club has already said goodbye to players like Brenden Aaronson and Robin Knoche, as they prepare for the upcoming season. The changes in personnel signal a new chapter for Union Berlin, and Svensson is eager to lead the team to success in the upcoming season.
