Schalke 04 has appointed Kees van Wonderen as head coach, but the coach’s start in Germany has not been too good. The first three matches under Van Wonderen, who was successful at FC Twente in the past, were lost.
And while Van Wonderen was appointed to prevent relegation from the 2. Bundesliga. A rumor has even surfaced in the German media that the head coach could retire if SSV Ulm is also defeated. Complete nonsense, according to sporting director Ben Manga of the German club.
“It is absolute nonsense that Kees is fired if they lose to Ulm,” says Manga BILD. “Whatever happens in Ulm, he will stay! You can take my word for it. The third defeat in a row means nothing at all for the coach. We will continue to work calmly. We want to continue the performance of the second half (of the game against Augsburg , ed.) to Friday’s match in Ulm,” said the driver.
