Hertha coach Korkut: The team doesn’t have a character problem

Berlin (dpa) – After investor Lars Windhorst’s fundamental criticism of the Hertha BSC club management, coach Tayfun Korkut has to focus on solving the massive sporting problems.

Before the game against RB Leipzig on Sunday (7.30 p.m. / DAZN), the Hertha coach countered the impression that his team had a character problem. “Even though I know that the public discussion is often pushed in this direction, I can say quite clearly: this team does not lack mentality,” said Korkut in a “kicker” interview.

After the sobering 1: 2 against bottom SpVgg Greuther Fürth last weekend, the 47-year-old gave the impression with his own statements that not all professionals understood the seriousness of the situation at table 14. of the Bundesliga could have recognized. But that is by no means the case, Korkut made clear: “There is no one there who gives me the feeling that he takes himself more seriously than what is happening here.”

The Berliners who are still without a win in five league games this year are only one point ahead of the relegation rank.
