Enis Hajri Resigns as Sporting Director of 1. FC Kaiserslautern

The surprise announcement comes just before the January transfer window, leaving the club to navigate key decisions without a replacement in place.

Enis Hajri, 41, announced his resignation as 1. FC Kaiserslautern's Sporting Director immediately following the team’s 0-1 loss to 1. FC Köln on Sunday.
Hajri, who has held the role since March 2023, cited personal reasons for stepping down, though the club has yet to officially confirm the resignation.
Despite early criticism for his role in the team's struggles last season, Hajri had recently been credited for the club's improved performance, with the team now three points off a promotion spot in the 2. Bundesliga.
His departure leaves the club facing the January transfer window without a Sporting Director, with CEO Thomas Hengen expected to oversee player transactions in the interim.
The unexpected timing of Hajri's decision has prompted internal discussions about finding a suitable successor to maintain the club's upward trajectory.
