New wind in women's football: ÖFB separates from team boss Fuhrmann!
Ried, Österreich - After intensive considerations, the Austrian Football Association (ÖFB) has announced the immediate separation from Irene Fuhrmann as a trainer of the women's national team. The 44-year-old, who has not been in office since December 27, 2024, was removed from her duties due to the failed qualification for the 2025 European Championship. Alexander Schriebl, the new team leader, will now lead the fortunes of the ÖFB women's squad and will bring two new assistant coaches with Sara Schaible and Gilbert Prilasnig, such as laola1 reported .
new impulses required
The ÖFB said that it was now time to set fresh impulses. Fuhrmann himself admitted that the decision was not easy, but emphasized that her main concern was the further development of the women's national team. She looks back on a successful time in which the team won 28 victories and six draws under her leadership in 53 games, as well as the move into the quarter-finals of the EM 2022 in England, such as The press reported .
Despite these successes, the qualification for the World Cup 2023 and the EM 2025 was not possible, which led to intensive discussions in the team. Marina Georgieva, player of the ÖFB women's team, regrets the dismissal, but realizes that the results have not been sufficient in recent years. She hopes for a new beginning under Schriebl's lead and would like to celebrate success together with her teammates. The new era begins on February 21st with a game against Scotland in Ried.| Details | |
