1. FC Nürnberg Parts Ways with Sport Director Olaf Rebbe Following Dispute

The surprising decision comes after disagreements over the club's future direction, despite Rebbe's praised transfer successes.

  • Olaf Rebbe, 46, has been dismissed as Sport Director of 1. FC Nürnberg with immediate effect after nearly four years in the role.
  • The club cited differing views on its future direction as the reason for the decision, which was announced shortly after the winter transfer window closed.
  • Rebbe was credited with securing significant transfer income for Nürnberg, including the sales of Finn Jeltsch, Stefanos Tzimas, and Jens Castrop, totaling millions of euros.
  • Despite these successes, the club will now search for a new Sport Director, with no immediate replacement announced.
  • Rebbe previously held roles at PAOK Saloniki, Huddersfield Town, VfL Wolfsburg, and Werder Bremen before joining Nürnberg in 2021.
