There are unrest in Kaiserslautern four game days before the end. The reason is rumors of change around the head coach.

The former Darmstadt coach, himself a native of Palatinate, is therefore considered the desired solution for those responsible. Initial talks with the 50-year-old are said to have already existed. Lieberknecht had trained Darmstadt 98 to September 2024 and worked before that at MSV Duisburg and over ten years at Eintracht Braunschweig.

According to “Sport1” there was an internal crisis meeting on Tuesday. There was also an immediate separation from the beginning. However, there is currently a lot to say that he can still end the current season. The TV station Sky also reports that there is an early separation in the room. There will be further discussions on Wednesday.

In the past three games, the FCK has remained without a point. Most recently, the team lost 0: 2 at Eintracht Braunschweig. After the 27th matchday, Kaiserslautern was still on the relegation place – the Palatinate has now slipped to seventh place. The ascent is still possible, but no longer on its own.

In addition, rumors about a possible change in the past few days have initially come up to FC Schalke 04. The new sports director of the Königsblauen, Frank Baumann, is interested in the Lauterer coach. The beginning and Baumann already know each other from days together in Bremen.
