After the separation from Gerardo Seoane, Borussia Mönchengladbach with the previous U23 coach Eugen Polanski initially relies on an interim solution at the coaching bench. After that, a former professional of FC Bayern takes over the Gladbacher?
According to the “kicker”, the name of Martin Demichelis is circulating around the Borussia Park. The 44 -year -old Argentinian would be available for Borussia immediately, he has been without a job since he was throwing out at CF Monterrey in Mexico last May.
Previously, he had coached his youth club River Plate in Buenos Aires for a year and a half, before that the U23 of FC Bayern. Demichelis worked as a young coach for the German record champion for a total of two and a half years.
There he also spent a considerable part of his active career. From 2003 to January 2011 he kicked for the Munich, then for FC Malaga, Atletico Madrid, Manchester City, Espanyol Barcelona and Malaga again. There he ended his player career in 2017.
In addition to Demichelis, the “Kicker” also names Urs Fischer (most recently Union Berlin) and Pellegrino Matarazzo (most recently TSG 1899 Hoffenheim) as possible Gladbach coaching candidates.
Gladbacher “Faith Frezung”
Borussia announced Seoanes’ exemption in the late Monday afternoon. “After an intensive review of our season start, we were convinced that we have to change the position of head coach,” said sports director Roland Virkus. “After ten Bundesliga games without a victory, faith has disappeared that the change with Gerardo can succeed.”

President Rainer Bonhof said: “Gerardo took over the team in a difficult situation, went on the path of the club, has pushed the team’s development process and stabilized it. However, the end of the season was not the way we imagined and the start of this season was also not. The step to take a new impulse is the right one.”
Polanski will now take over the coaching position “until further notice”, it said.
