SV Werder Bremen publicly distances itself from club legend Tim Wiese! The former goalkeeper had recently shown himself repeatedly with people who belong to the right-wing scene.
At the weekend, photos of Tim Wiese made waves on social media because the 40-year-old was photographed with Nazis. SV Werder Bremen reacted to this and drew the necessary conclusions after Wiese’s “repeated public dealings with well-known people from the right-wing milieu”.
The green-whites announced on Monday that they were distancing themselves from Wiese, that the club legend would no longer be invited to official events and that he would no longer be allowed to play for the traditional SVW team. The former goalkeeper was already informed personally.
“We had an open but also very serious conversation with Tim at the beginning of the year and made it unmistakably clear to him that this approach would not fit with the values of SV Werder Bremen. Despite his statements, we have doubts that Tim is in these circles doesn’t feel like we belong. But there shouldn’t be any doubts about the position we take at Werder Bremen,” said Dr. Hubertus Hess-Grunewald clearly in the press release. “We see Tim Wiese as having a responsibility to the fans and Werder Bremen to dispel these doubts over the long term.”
