Overview

• Füchse Berlin dismissed head coach Jaron Siewert and sporting director Stefan Kretzschmar with immediate effect and installed Danish coach Nicolej Krickau in a dual role.
• Results have dipped since the upheaval, with defeats to SC Magdeburg (32:29) and VfL Gummersbach (29:34), and captain Max Darj lamenting the team were not ready to fight.
• Lange told Bild that 60–70% of players wanted a change and defended managing director Bob Hanning, saying the four shareholders agreed unanimously on the dismissal.
• Siewert and leaders Mathias Gidsel and Fabian Wiede denied any player involvement, with Siewert stating the exit was solely a decision by shareholders and management.
• Public filings list four shareholders and note a 2023 clause giving management a casting vote in case of a tie until 2027, context for how the decision was taken as a Champions League test against Aalborg looms this week.
