Overview

  • The club is finalizing terms with 47-year-old Schultz after parting ways with Antwerpen in late May.
  • Schultz coached FC St. Pauli in the 2. Bundesliga from July 2020 to December 2022 following his rise through the Hamburg club’s youth system.
  • He had a brief tenure at FC Basel in mid-2023 before joining 1. FC Köln in January 2024, leaving after the team’s relegation.
  • Despite securing the club’s survival last season, Antwerpen was not retained for the upcoming campaign, prompting the search for new leadership.
  • Osnabrück will kick off pre-season preparations next week, with Schultz expected to assume his role as head coach upon finalizing the agreement.
