Germany's top-tier football league. - Questioning Sahin as a potential BVB coach, Heldt.
Horst Heldt, a former German national soccer player, voices his concern over Borussia Dortmund's potential appointment of Nuri Sahin as their new coach. In a conversation on the Sky show "Triple - the Schützflitz football talk," he expressed his opinion, "We're discussing alterations. Nevertheless, if these alterations are identical to the existing ones, then those modifications are merely illusory."
Sahin may possess a distinct personality compared to Edin Terzic. However, he is similarly a product of Dortmund's in-house talent and boasts a "BVB history." Heldt suggests it might have been wiser to initiate a total shift by recruiting a coach without a connection to the team's past.
The media outlet Bild reported that Sahin will succeed Terzic, with just a few minor details yet to be ironed out between the 35-year-old and the management staff.
Regarding Sahin's co-training role, Heldt made the remark, "He was more of a friend than a head coach." This sentiment was shared with regards to Terzic as well, as Heldt observed, "The circumstances remain the same, with the only difference being the names."
The long-serving Dortmunder Weidenfeller, a 43-year-old former Dortmund goalkeeper, noted Terzic's departure as somewhat unexpected. However, he believes it's the moment when they must part ways. "It's at a point when we need to go our separate paths." He reminisced about the struggles faced by the team during that time, "There was some disquiet within the squad. We were not on the same page tactically. Some players couldn't keep up with the tactics anymore."
