soccer - Freiburg's shoemaker about stripes: We have exchanged a lot
Trainer Julian Schuster from Bundesligist FC Freiburg is certain that he learned a lot from his predecessor Christian Streich. "He gave me something for 16 years, not explicitly, but of course we exchanged a lot and of course there is a lot of Christian in me," Schuster told TV-Sender Sport1. However, we were not always of the same opinion, but that doesn't have to be the case, according to Schuster on the sidelines of the training camp in Österreichisch Schruns.
Schuster joined Freiburg as a player in 2008, with Streich being the co-trainer at the time. From 2012, Streich was the head coach for more than twelve years, with Schuster first remaining a player and also captain, and then becoming co-trainer in 2018.
