Under Felix Magath, Hertha BSC has recently stabilized significantly in the Bundesliga and left the relegation zone. The coach oldie led the Berliners from the penultimate place in the table to 15th place, next Saturday evening (6:30 p.m.) the league can be made perfect against 1. FSV Mainz 05. Even in the event of a rescue, Magath’s commitment beyond the end of the season is considered unlikely. Hertha’s plans probably go in a different direction.
According to the latest information from “kicker”, the preferred solution on the head coach’s chair from July 1st is Sandro Schwarz. The former coach of 1. FSV Mainz 05 is currently still employed in Russia by Dinamo Moscow and had not left the Russian capital even after Putin’s war of aggression against Ukraine began in February.
Black led Dinamo to second place in the Premier League and into the Russian Cup semi-finals – there’s still a chance of winning the title.
After the current season, the 43-year-old should then be brought to Berlin at the request of the Hertha bosses in order to lead the club into the long-awaited better sporting future.
Kovac also traded around Hertha BSC
According to unanimous media reports, Felix Magath himself is said to be quite willing to continue his engagement with the old lady beyond the summer if he stays in the league.
According to information from the specialist magazine, this scenario should not be preferred by sports director Fredi Bobic, who is probably fully committed to Sandro Schwarz.
In addition to Schwarz, ex-Bayern coach Niko Kovac is still high on the shortlist of possible head coaches at Hertha. According to “kicker”, Kovac, who has been without a job since the beginning of the year (most recently AS Monaco), is still skeptical about a return to his long-standing club.
