Overview
- Werder Bremen coach Daniel Thioune revealed a new '15:30' tattoo on his left wrist ahead of Saturday's home match against Borussia Dortmund.
- He said the design, styled like a digital clock, points to the league’s standard Saturday kickoff time as a personal reminder to stay fully committed.
- The idea dates back to a near-promotion with Fortuna Düsseldorf two years ago as a lesson to not take his role for granted.
- The tattoo follows Bremen's narrow survival in the Bundesliga, which keeps Thioune in charge next season.
- Thioune called the season poor, noting a 15th-place finish with relief rather than celebration, and set plans for earlier pressing, tighter space control, and more time on the ball.
