Upheaval at ThSV Eisenach: New coaching team and many new additions!

The handball world is looking at ThSV Eisenach these days because there are exciting times ahead here. With the appointment of Sebastian Hinze as the new coach, a new era begins in the Eisenach club. The era of Misha Kaufmann, who is moving to league rivals TVB Stuttgart, officially ended today. This reports Handball world. Hinze, who previously coached the Rhein-Neckar Löwen, is now taking on the challenge of leading ThSV into the new season.

A lot has happened on the transfer market. The squad is taking concrete shape, with a total of six departures and seven new arrivals. Marko Grgic's early move to SG Flensburg-Handewitt stands out among the departures. ThSV managing director René Witte said that they did not want to let Grgic go, but an amicable solution was found that suited both sides.

New momentum in the squad

ThSV has signed a new backcourt player, Vukasin Antonijevic, to compensate for the loss of Aleksandar Capric, who will be out for a long time due to injury. Felix Aellen, Oskar Joelsson, Stephan Seitz and Max Beneke, who comes on loan from Füchse Berlin, are also new to the team. Tillman Leu will bring a breath of fresh air to the pivot position. Another bright spot: goalkeeper Bastian Freitag returns after his loan from Stralsunder HV.

A notable returnee is Jannis Schneibel, who is coming back after a loan spell but will be out until spring 2026 due to a torn cruciate ligament. The team will also be strengthened with Marec Stupka, who will be promoted from the A youth team to the Bundesliga squad.

A look at the departures

The departures are varied, in addition to Kaufmann and Grgic, Simone Mengon and Ivan Snajder also left the club for TVB Stuttgart. Malte Donker is joining GWD Minden, while Rok Maric and Dustin Kraus have not yet found a new club. Filip Vistorop is moving to HSG Wetzlar. These changes create the opportunity for fresh talent and new strategies in the ThSV Eisenach squad.

Amid this restructuring, it will be exciting for fans to see how the team will perform in the upcoming season. Coach Hinze has a big task ahead of him and it remains to be seen how quickly the new players will integrate into the team. Fans can look forward to an exciting season.

Time will tell what new opportunities arise as a result of the squad changes. The anticipation for the games is already great, and ThSV Eisenach appeals to all fans to support the team in this crucial phase. Here we work with a “good hand” on the field and in the team to ensure a successful restart to the season.
