Joe Enochs is the new sports director: Trainer scouts for VfL at work!

Osnabrück, Deutschland - The football world of VfL Osnabrück is heading these days! On June 11th Joe Enochs was introduced as the new sports director, an important step for the club, who after a disappointing season in the 3rd division dares to start a new beginning. The 53-year-old returns to the Bremen bridge after over seven years of absence. With a proud 376 competitive games for VfL, Enoch is the record player of the club and has a lot of experience from various positions that he went through in the club from 1996 to 2017.

But the clatter between the wishes and requirements is not over yet. The position of head coach is currently vacant because the club separated from Marco Antwerp and his assistant Frank Döpper at the end of May after the season did not meet expectations. VfL secured the relegation, but the failures in the league and the defeat in the State Cup final against BW Lohne have left traces. Joe Enochs now has the not exactly low task of finding a successor to Antwerp, and Timo Schultz is acted as a favorite. Schultz was last active at 1st FC Köln, but could not prevent the descent.

a returnee with a lot of experience

The talks for the coaching position are already underway and expectations are high. Managing Director Michael Welling firmly believes in Enoch's skills to lead a successful realignment. "It is not nostalgia, but the intention to create the right prerequisites for the sporting future," said Welling. Together with Enochs, Majid Cirousse, who was most recently assistant to the co-white Lohne, will also become part of the team. Cirousse will work for VfL in the youth area.

It becomes particularly exciting because a new coach is to be found until the medical tests on June 20. Enochs will specifically take care of the professional team and the U19, while the performance area of ​​the club of Sebastian Schwermann is reorganized. Schwermann has been in the club since 2022 and brings the necessary expertise from the areas of athletics, rehabilitation, nutrition, physiotherapy and sports medicine with.

challenges and opportunities

The return of Joe Enochs to VfL Osnabrück brings a breath of fresh air, but also challenges. His experience at SSV Jahn Regensburg, where he missed the promotion to the 2nd Bundesliga, and his successful time at FSV Zwickau, where he secured the relegation in the 3. League four times, show that he knows how to get clubs on course. Now it is up to him to make the right decisions to attribute Osnabrück to the track in the long term.

How things will go with the coaching search and the upcoming planning remains exciting. The signs for the coming season could be crucial for the development of the association - there is something! The fans of VfL Osnabrück may be looking forward to the coming weeks and hope for a return to the old.
