Overview
- SV Darmstadt 98, which announced the deal Thursday, did not disclose how long the new contract runs.
- Sporting chief Paul Fernie, fresh off his own renewal, praised Kohfeldt's clear playing style and said the pair have started wide changes at the club.
- Kohfeldt took over in September 2024 with Darmstadt in relegation trouble and built a side that pushed for promotion before a late slump ended the bid.
- The club says the extension secures the head coach role so the current development plan can carry on without disruption.
- Backing the coach now also shores up continuity as his work has drawn outside interest and supporters look for a renewed push next season.
