Ex-Football Star Thomas Häßler Returns to Coaching After Health Struggles

Two years after a sudden memory loss, the 1990 World Cup winner takes on a new role with FC Spandau 06 Berlin's Bezirksliga.

Thomas Häßler, a former German football star, has resumed his coaching career after recovering from a sudden memory loss suffered in August 2022.
Häßler, 58, is now coaching FC Spandau 06, an eighth-tier team in Berlin's Bezirksliga, aiming to guide the team to better results over the coming years.
The 1990 World Cup winner and 1996 European champion expressed his renewed passion for football and desire to contribute to the team's success.
