Club “cannot confirm”
Coach Jens Keller faces the relegation threatened second division club 1. FC Nürnberg. According to information from “Bild”, the club, which slipped to 16th place in a 1-1 draw at Holstein Kiel on Sunday, will part with the coach before the relegation matches. Nuremberg’s media director Christian Bönig rejected the report in the evening. “I can’t confirm that at all at this point,” said Bönig when asked about the dpa.
Keller had succeeded the Austrian Damir Canadi at the FCN in November, but was also unable to lead the club out of the crisis. The old master threatens to be passed through to the 3rd division after relegation to the Bundesliga last year. After the game, Keller said about his supposed end: “I’m the wrong person to contact, I assume that I will continue to be a coach. We haven’t talked about it yet, the disappointment was great at first and now we have to pool all our energy. ”
1. FC Nürnberg: Sports director Palikuca contacts Keller’s successor
According to “Bild”, FCN sports director Robert Palikuca has already contacted a possible successor. The supervisory board will be informed of the plans on Monday. The relegation matches will only take place on July 7th and 11th, as the 3rd league has two games to complete. That would give a new coach some time.
