Now it’s fixed! What has been in the offing for weeks has now been confirmed. Sandro Schwarz (43) becomes the new Hertha coach! The “kicker” reports that first.
Accordingly, after the cup final with his current club Dynamo Moscow on Sunday against city rival Spartak, the ex-Mainz coach will terminate his contract in Russia, which ran until 2024.
Hertha has the Magath successor! The ex-Mainzer should then be officially presented as the new coach at the capital city club next week at the latest.
BILD and SPORT BILD already reported at the beginning of May that Herthan was interested in Sandro Schwarz. To “foosball”The coach would have come up with information even if Hertha had been relegated.
Schwarz caused a stir because, unlike the other German coaches Markus Gisdol (52, was with Lok Moscow) and Daniel Farke (45, FK Krasnodar) in Russia, when war broke out in Ukraine, he initially stayed in Putin’s country and ends the season with Dynamo Moscow.
He replaces interim coach Felix Magath (68), who is leaving as agreed after the successful relegation against HSV (2-1 after the first and second leg).
