After the departure of Roland Virkus as managing director of Borussia Mönchengladbach, a successor has been found. At least, this is being reported consistently by both ‘kicker’ and the ‘Salzburger Nachrichten’. The new boss is no stranger to the Bundesliga – and could turn out to be expensive.
According to the information, Rouven Schröder will be employed on the Lower Rhine starting this week. The 49-year-old has already managed 1. FC Nürnberg, Greuther Fürth, Mainz 05, Schalke 04, and RB Leipzig in Germany.
Currently, however, Schröder is working in Austria. At RB Salzburg, the Arnsberg native is still under contract as Managing Director of Sport until December 31, 2028.
If he does not reach an agreement with his current employer to terminate his contract, a transfer fee will be due for the apparent preferred candidate of the Foals.
What do you think? Is Schröder the right man to lead Gladbach out of the crisis?
