Florian Kohfeldt will continue as head coach of SV Werder Bremen after the winter break. Sporting director Frank Baumann and Florian Kohfeldt confirmed that on Monday evening. “Irrelevant of the result in the DFB-Pokal tie against SC Freiburg, we have seen the development of the team that we wanted to see and we want to give Florian Kohfeldt the opportunity to continue his work in the long term. It has to be the target now to secure our safety from relegation and to continue the team’s development in the coming season. We hope that we can have a long-term cooperation,” Baumann said, but he didn’t explain the length of his contract. Previously, the SV Werder Bremen management and the board of directors agreed on continuing to work with the 35-year-old coach.
