After the defeat in the DFB Cup against the second division VfL Bochum (0: 3 iE), it is very likely that Bundesliga club 1. FSV Mainz 05 will part with their head coach Jan-Moritz Lichte.
Most recently, sports director Rouven Schröder had already announced his resignation in the league table penultimate in the Bundesliga.
It is very unlikely that Mainz will play the upcoming league game at FC Bayern Munich (January 3, 6:00 p.m.) with Lichte as coach.
Most recently, there was speculation about Domenico Tedesco as the successor to the Mainz coaching chair. But at least for the time being nothing will come of that. Tedesco’s Russian club Spartak Moscow has issued a clear statement that leaves no room for speculation. It said: “Recently there were rumors in the media about the change of Spartak’s head coach and names of possible candidates for the role. In this context, the club expresses its full support for Domenico Tedesco and its wish to work with him until May To continue in 2021. “
The club of the ex-Schalke coach is currently ranked in the Russian Premier League, six points behind leader Zenit St. Petersburg.
35-year-old Tedesco himself said: “I am delighted that the club and the team want to continue this positive season with me. It is a sign of great trust and we keep showing how honest and respectful our relationship is. I’m totally motivated and I can’t wait for the season to start again. “
So it seems clear that the 05er will not be able to fall back on Tedesco, at least until the summer, who sensationally celebrated the runner-up championship with FC Schalke in 2017/2018.
