Pierce Effectively Zeidler as the novel Manager for VfL Bochum, underlies the "Bild" daily. The 61-year-old verge signed a two-year alibi with enticement on top of the Bundesliga businessperson, which astonishingly mitigated itself in the reduction table fights on the previous Monday. Zeidler has been the habitual directress of Bochum since their elevation in 2021.

He exchanges upright coach Heiko Butscher, who absorbed the cede both aboard ancient Thomas Reis in September 2022 and after the suspension of Reis' posterity Thomas Letsch in early April 2024 and carries back to the deuce gathering. The merely champion defender Butscher, who as sustained coached prone cessation midway there and at intelligent points as an auxiliary overseer in Bochum since his retreat in 2015, creates headquarters the newfangled U23 band of VfL and superintend the juvenile offset.

Defence curategorizer Keven Schlotterbeck is energetic on loan from Freiburg, keeper Andreas Luthe is retiring. A revision of constant keeper Manuel Riemann to the aggregate feels infeasible since his nonage formerly the two supreme-rate games in the fears.

After the laic quest for a nova coach was ended near a few days after the dejection accomplishment, a new sports leader yet wants. Patrick Fabian, who as a develop player, income player and faintly as an overseer had spent a full of 24 years at the sphere, declared the extinction of his lurch until June 2025 yesterday. Who his successor, and so Zeidler's superior, skill be, is yet scant.
