Mainz 05 Parts Ways With Bo Henriksen as U23 Coach Benjamin Hoffemann Takes Interim Charge

Club leaders describe the change as a fresh start after one win in 12 league matches.

Overview

  • Mainz and Bo Henriksen agreed on Wednesday to end their collaboration with immediate effect, the club announced.
  • Under-23 coach Benjamin Hoffemann will oversee first-team training on an interim basis until a permanent appointment is made.
  • Mainz sit bottom of the Bundesliga with one win from 12 matches, contrasting with three victories in four Conference League games.
  • Board member Christian Heidel praised Henriksen’s role in last season’s survival before calling the switch a necessary sporting reset.
  • The attack has struggled following top scorer Jonathan Burkardt’s move to Eintracht Frankfurt, and Mainz host Borussia Mönchengladbach on Friday.
