Gladbach Keeps Door Open for Neuhaus After U23 Demotion

A post-sanction review will measure his adherence to club values in relation to the performance expected of senior squad players.

Overview

  • Florian Neuhaus is completing the final phase of a four-week U23 sanction imposed after he disparaged sporting director Roland Virkus in a viral Mallorca video.
  • U23 coach Eugen Polanski says Neuhaus has integrated seamlessly with the reserves and upheld professional behavior throughout his demotion.
  • Sporting director Roland Virkus and CEO Stefan Stegemann assert the club’s disciplinary action remedied the breach of values without any lingering personal discord.
  • Borussia Mönchengladbach plans a post-sanction evaluation to determine if Neuhaus’s conduct aligns with club principles and merits a first-team squad spot.
  • With only two Bundesliga starts last season and increased midfield depth, Neuhaus must meet elevated performance standards to secure a senior role.
