Kickers Offenbach Suspends Sporting Director Hock, Appoints Boysen Interim

The move seeks quick stability after a four-match winless run capped by a 3-4 collapse at Sandhausen.

Overview

  • The supervisory board made the personnel change in an extraordinary meeting, installing former coach Hans-Jürgen Boysen to steer the sporting setup on an interim basis.
  • Boysen has been tasked to work in close proximity to the coaching staff and squad to provide short-term stability and support.
  • Kickers Offenbach sits 12th in the Regionalliga Südwest with 11 points from nine matches, 16 behind the leaders.
  • The club condemned personal hate messages directed at Christian Hock, which he had shared on Instagram.
  • Coach Kristjan Glibo apologized to supporters and rebuked defensive errors after the 3-4 defeat, while captain Marc Wachs left his comeback early with a renewed thigh issue before Tuesday’s home match against SG Barockstadt Fulda-Lehnerz.
