Backhaus, a 43-year-old coach, is returning to the 2nd Bundesliga and is supposed to *get the traditional club back on track after turbulent waters*.[ News38 ]

An eventful time in Aachen
Before Backhaus moved to Eintracht Braunschweig, he had *two successful years at Alemannia Aachen*. Under his leadership, the club achieved promotion to the 3rd league and stayed in the league last season. Looking back, the coach describes the time in Aachen as emotional and unforgettable. “I would like to thank the club and those responsible for their support,” said Backhaus. However, his departure met with mixed reactions, with many Alemannia Aachen supporters expressing disappointment and accusing him of empty promises. The fact that he had a contract until 2027 also causes dissatisfaction.[ WDR ]
With the successful completion of his DFB Pro license in January 2025, Backhaus has taken another step in his career. He took his first steps in his coaching career in Leipzig and at various clubs in Germany's lower leagues. But at this point, with the move to Eintracht Braunschweig, a new chapter opens for him.[ Bundesliga.com ]
