These are chaotic times at Borussia Mönchengladbach. The league table points to a relegation battle, the injury situation among the players is anything but rosy, and on top of that they have to replace both the sporting director and the head coach. At least for the former, they now seem to have found a new appointment in Rouven Schröder.
The 49-year-old most recently served as managing director of sport at RB Salzburg and, by all appearances, will be bought out of his contract by Borussia. According to Bild, the Austrians are demanding up to 1.5 million euros.
Many Borussia fans are now wondering what Schröder’s arrival means for Eugen Polanski. The interim coach has been on the touchline for three matches—does Schröder’s arrival signal his end?
According to Bild reports, the interim coach is to remain in his position for the time being even under Schröder! This demand is said to have even been part of the negotiations between Schröder and the Gladbach bosses.
Schröder himself reportedly agreed to this concession relatively quickly—likely also to avoid turning Borussia’s fans against him before he even takes office.
