Nagelsmann return talk at Leipzig as Demichelis wobbles at 3W 3L
Post
๐ฐ Three months into Martรญn Demichelis's reign, Leipzig's former coach Julian Nagelsmann is being mentioned again.
๐ Key points
๐บ According to Sky, some decision-makers see Nagelsmann as an alternative.
๐ซ There are, however, no talks at all between Nagelsmann and the club.
๐ก๏ธ The club's leadership is still backing Demichelis for now.
โ๏ธ Sport Bild says Nagelsmann is 'not a serious candidate'.
๐ Demichelis has won three and lost three of six competitive games.
๐ What happened
๐บ Get German Football News and Bulinews, citing Sky, reported that one or two decision-makers at Leipzig and in the wider Red Bull group see Nagelsmann as an option if the coach is changed. Supervisory board chairman Oliver Mintzlaff is said to remain an admirer.
๐ซ But there are currently no talks between the two parties. Sky expects Demichelis to be given time to implement his ideas, with the October fixtures likely to be decisive for his future.
โ๏ธ There is a counter-report too. 90min, citing Sport Bild, said Nagelsmann is 'not a serious candidate', though it added that a quick split could become a real option if results do not improve after the international break.
๐งญ Demichelis replaced Ole Werner, who led Leipzig to third last season. In six competitive games he has beaten Gladbach and Hamburg but lost to Bremen, Como and Leverkusen. Nagelsmann has been out of work since leaving the Germany job after the World Cup.
๐ By the numbers
โข Demichelis in competitive games: 6 played, 3 won, 3 lost
โข Nagelsmann's first spell (2019โ21): 1.94 points per game over 95 matches
โข First-spell highlights: Champions League semi-final, Bundesliga runners-up
โข Nagelsmann's age: 39
๐ญ Why it matters
Leipzig host Eintracht Frankfurt on 10 October. That game and the rest of October could decide Demichelis's fate. The story is low on reliability, but the Nagelsmann talk could grow if results keep wobbling.
