Despite the results crisis, there is no discussion about a coach at RB Leipzig. Sporting director Marcel Schäfer confirmed this on the Sport1 program "Doppelpass". "We are confident in our squad and our coaching team, but of course we also have to deliver," said the 40-year-old. We have "not had a good week, we have high ambitions. We will address things." The way they played was not what they wanted to bring to the pitch.
On Saturday, Leipzig were held to a 0-0 draw against Borussia Mönchengladbach. "I expect us to go about our business in a completely different way," said Schäfer. "There is a clear RB DNA and we are not bringing that onto the pitch at the moment."
The appointment of Jürgen Klopp as global head of soccer will not change their ambitions. "Of course, it sends out a clear signal. With his expertise, experience and charisma, he will help us. But the ambitions are not getting any higher, they are already high," said Schäfer. "Jürgen Klopp will help and hopefully make sure that we have one or two things in our hands." He is really looking forward to the collaboration, Klopp is a huge added value for Leipzig.
