Mislintat has to go: Borussia Dortmund in crisis mode!

At Borussia Dortmund there was a dramatic upheaval: The technical director Sven Mislintat had to announce his resignation due to a power struggle with sports director Sebastian Kehl. This was announced after a personal conversation with sports manager Lars Ricken on Thursday. Dortmund, which is currently in the disappointing eleventh place in the Bundesliga, had only signed Mislintat last summer. Before that, he worked for well -known clubs such as Arsenal, VfB Stuttgart and Ajax Amsterdam. His release shows the deep problems of the crisis club, which urgently has to stabilize again in order to break out of the sporting descent, as krone.at reported.

No effects at RB Leipzig

While Dortmund is in the crisis, there is a different Situation at RB Leipzig. Despite a lean series of four league games without victory, sports director Marcel Schäfer confirmed that Marco Rose, the coach of Leipzig, had no fear of immediate job -threatening consequences. "I am convinced of the coaching team around Marco and the squad," said Schäfer. RB is currently in fourth place in the table and would therefore just achieve the minimum goal for qualifying for the Champions League. Nevertheless, according to Schäfer, there is an urgent need for success to improve the current mood in the team. The situation around Leipzig could soon change drastically if Jürgen Klopp as Global Head of Soccer gets in at Red Bull. His knowledge and experience could play a key role in the development of the club and change the culture sustainably, which would strengthen both Marco Rose and the team, such as onefootball.com reported.
