Wuppertaler SV went into the winter break with a 4:0 win at Borussia Mönchengladbach II. The new coach is to be introduced in the next few days.

Take a deep breath at Hubertusallee: After a turbulent last week of work, Wuppertaler SV is now in the winter break. And: The team was able to say goodbye to the vacations with a commanding 4:0 victory at Borussia Mönchengladbach II.

With a nine-point deficit at the top of the table, the red-and-blues are now taking a break before things pick up again in the new year. “I think more would have been possible in terms of our position in the table. We just have to improve, get more consistency and then I think we’ll play a good second half of the season and attack again. Because we haven’t been able to achieve what we set out to do so far,” Gaetano Manno told Forecasting.

The coach with whom WSV will tackle the rest of the season and attack once again has not yet been decided. But the fans will receive the answer in a few days.

While Manno does not want to comment on the search for a coach, our editorial team has learned that three candidates, including interim coach Christian Britscho, are still in the running. These are said to include Dario Fossi and “Mister X”. According to our information, Manno has been in contact with around ten coaches before deciding on the final list of three.

The final choice will be made in the next few days. Wuppertaler SV want to present their new head coach by Christmas so that they can enjoy the festive season in peace.

From the beginning of January, the new man and official successor to Hüzeyfe Dogan will then get to work – including a training camp in Belek, Turkey – and try to make the impossible possible: To lead Wuppertaler SV back to first place in the table after finishing third and second in recent seasons and thus back into professional soccer after almost 15 years. WSV were last in the third division in the 2009/2010 season
