After narrowly avoiding relegation, Union Berlin faces the task of appointing a new head coach for the upcoming season. Reports suggest that a decision could be made as early as Monday, with former Mainz coach Bo Svensson as the frontrunner. However, other clubs are also interested in the Danish coach, including André Breitenreiter, who has been considered by Union.
Many fans are hoping for a return of former successful coach Urs Fischer, especially after his positive remarks following the team’s survival in the league. Fischer, who is currently on standby, remains under contract until 2025 but has received offers from abroad. President Dirk Zingler has previously questioned the timing of Fischer’s departure last November and whether it was premature.
While Fischer’s return may be a dream for many fans, Union will prioritize appointing a new coach for now. However, if the search faces complications, the possibility of Fischer making a comeback cannot be ruled out. The club is focused on building for the future and ensuring stability as they prepare for the new season.
