Irene Fuhrmann: Surprising separation from the Austrian women's team!

There are currently big news in football: The Austrian Football Association (ÖFB) officially announced the separation of team boss Irene Fuhrmann. This decision, which was not easy, follows an intensive analysis that has shown that new impulses are required for the women's national team. Fuhrmann, who has been running the team since summer 2020, said: "I had my job with 100 percent passion and commitment until the last day." Nevertheless, she is convinced that the decision was made for the well -being of the team. Her greatest success was the quarter-finals at the European Championship 2022 in England, but the recent defeat against Poland in the play-off in the qualification for the 2025 European Championship was a bit of setback that was probably accelerating its dismissal, as Today. reported.

Who followed Fuhrmann?

A successor for Fuhrmann has not yet been determined, but a decision is expected in January. The former trainer of St. Pölten, Liese Brancao, is considered a favorite for the successor. Brancao recently resigned from her post and could lead the new wave in Austrian women's football. In this context, the discussion about the future development of the team is getting louder, while the fans are looking forward to the direction in which the journey of the women's national team will go to Fuhrmann.
