Oliver Glasner, Roger Schmidt, Matthias Jaissle and now Danny Röhl. Nothing can currently be speculated as well as about the future coach of RB Leipzig. Hansi Flick’s former assistant already has RB experience. That could be an advantage.
According to Sky, RB Leipzig has another candidate, according to Sky. As the broadcaster reports, Danny Röhl are on the list of the Bundesliga club. The former assistant of Hansi Flick at Bayern Munich and the national soccer team is currently under contract with the English second division club Sheffield Wednesday at his first chief station. Röhl and his team are in 13th place on the championship.
So far, RB Leipzig has not commented on candidates. We are looking for a new trainer for the coming season. Marco Rose had recently had to vacate his post, as an interim coach, Zsolt Löw is a member of his function as Head of Soccer Development by RB and Jürgen Klopp to work until the end of the season. According to Sky, Röhl has the bosses around Oliver Mintzlaff and Jürgen Klopp convinced human, professionally and in terms of content. The 35-year-old has risen from an “candidate with outsider opportunities” to the “secret favorite”, it is said.
Before Röhl, it was speculated as candidates over Oliver Glasner, Roger Schmidt or Matthias Jaissle. Sebastian Hoeneß was mainly traded for a long time, but he has just extended his contract at VfB Stuttgart and is therefore out of the rumor mill. Sky did not name a source in his report on Röhl. Born in Zwickau, he was already a youth coach and assistant of the then coach Ralph Hasenhüttl. With the Austrian, the 35-year-old then went to FC Southampton in England.
Under Flick and Röhl there was the season in Munich in 2020 with many titles including Champions League triumph, but the World Cup in 2022 also the World Cup disappointment in Qatar. When Flick had to go in September 2023, the time of Röhl was over at the DFB, a month later he went to Sheffield.
