Relegated third division side Erzgebirge Aue are planning a fresh start in the Regionalliga Nordost with coach Chwitscha Schubitidse. The club made the announcement after a "decision-making process lasting several weeks". "There were several exciting candidates. After weighing up all the influencing factors, we came to the conclusion that Chwitscha Schubitidse has earned this opportunity and our trust through his team leadership, his appearance and his sporting signature in a thankless phase of the season," said Aue president Thomas Schlesinger in a statement.
