SG Flensburg-Handewitt Parts Ways With Coach Nicolej Krickau
The German handball club cites lack of team progress following poor season performance and appoints interim leadership.
- SG Flensburg-Handewitt has dismissed head coach Nicolej Krickau after a disappointing start to the Handball-Bundesliga season.
- The decision comes after a 29:31 loss to Rhein-Neckar Löwen, leaving the team in sixth place with 19:9 points.
- Club officials, including CEO Holger Glandorf, stated that the move was made due to insufficient development within the team.
- Co-trainer Anders Eggert and sports director Ljubomir Vranjes will manage the team on an interim basis, starting with Monday's match against Füchse Berlin.
- Krickau, who joined the club in 2023 on a three-year contract, led the team to a European League title earlier this year.
