The future of coach Bruno Labbadia at relegation-threatened Bundesliga club VfB Stuttgart is still unclear. “We continue to hold talks,” said CEO Alexander Wehrle of the German Press Agency.
The bottom of the table had lost 3-0 at 1. FC Union Berlin the day before and suffered another setback. However, Stuttgart completed training with Bruno Labbadia the day after the defeat.
In view of the next zero number under Labbadia, there had previously been media reports about a possibly imminent separation. Sports director Fabian Wohlgemuth had announced a comprehensive analysis after the bankruptcy in the capital. He and the chairman of the board, Alexander Wehrle, are said to be on the club premises.
Labbadia only became coach of the Swabian Bundesliga club for the second time in December. In eleven league games only one win was achieved. On Wednesday, the Swabians will play the quarter-finals of the DFB Cup at second division club 1. FC Nürnberg, next Sunday the important game at VfL Bochum, which is also threatened with relegation, is scheduled.
