Rumors recently circulated that the paths of Borussia Dortmund and U19 coach Mike Tullberg could separate in summer. But now the BVB has apparently found another solution.
According to information from “Reviersport”, nothing is currently about the separation rumors. Rather, Mike Tullberg even wave a promotion at BVB.
According to the report, the black and yellow plan to convert the U23 coaching staff. Tullberg should then move from his old post as head coach of the U19 to the second team.
The U23 of Dortmund is currently playing in the 3rd league against relegation. In the Westphalia, a new line -up on the sidelines hopes that this dreary will end. For the previous head coach Jan Zimmermann that would mean that.
The “Ruhr Nachrichten” had previously reported that a Tullberg separation was currently the “most likely scenario”. The Dane should therefore no longer see a real perspective in the U19 and complained about the squad structure with his bosses.
Became known at BVB as an interim coach
The newspaper wrote that there is still an open exchange. But it is certain that Tullberg will no longer sign a new contract in his current role. The 39-year-old is bound to Borussia until 2026.
If the information from “Reviersport” was right, a creative solution would have actually been found to convince Tullberg of one.
The coach has been part of the Dortmund coaching team since summer 2019. First he worked for the second team, then he became the coach of the U19.
Tullberg gained greater awareness when he took over the first team in the current season to bridge the time between Nuri Sahin and the employment of Niko Kovac.
