Just In: Alemannia Aachen Sacks Heiner Backhaus

Heiner Backhaus, the manager of Alemannia Aachen, has been dismissed from his position. This decision comes after a series of disappointing results that have left the club struggling in the 3. Liga. Despite leading the team to promotion and a regional cup victory, recent performances have not met expectations, prompting the club’s board to seek a change in leadership.

Backhaus, who took over as head coach in September 2023, was instrumental in guiding Alemannia Aachen from the Regionalliga West to the 3. Liga. Under his guidance, the team secured the league title and clinched the Mittelrheinpokal, earning a spot in the first round of the DFB-Pokal. His efforts were recognized with a contract extension in May 2024, extending his tenure until 2027 .([WDR News][1], [Reviersport][2])

 

However, the current season has been challenging. The team has faced inconsistent performances, leading to a series of unfavorable results that have placed them near the relegation zone. Despite Backhaus’s previous successes, the club’s management felt a change was necessary to steer the team back on course.

 

Alemannia Aachen, a club with a rich history and a passionate fanbase, now faces the task of finding a new manager who can restore the team’s competitive edge and ensure their survival in the 3. Liga. The decision to part ways with Backhaus, while difficult, reflects the club’s commitment to achieving its goals and maintaining its status in German football’s third tier.
