Rösch and Fröhling complete training staff

Rösch enjoyed spells under Gisdol both at SSV Ulm and as assistant manager of the U23 side at Hoffenheim. The pair also know each other from their playing days at SSV Reutlingen. The 51-year-old will not just take up the assistant managerial role either. Rösch will also help fitness coach Nicklas Dietrich with his duties.

Since the departure of Frank Kramer, Fröhling has been in charge of the U23 side along with Rösch. At the same time, Fröhling was also in charge of the U15 side, a team with which he won two consecutive South-German championships in the southern league of the fourth division.

Hoffenheim's training staff will be as follows for next season: Markus Gisdol (manager), Frank Kaspari, Frank Fröhling (assistant managers), Otmar Rösch (assistant manager and rehabilitation coach), Zsolt Petry (goalkeeping coach) and Nicklas Dietrich (fitness coach).
