Mainz (dpa) - On the way to becoming head coach at the Bundesliga soccer club FSV Mainz 05, Bo Svensson was inspired by his former coaches Jürgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel.

“I took a lot from both of them.

In terms of content and people, I have a lot left.

How to lead a team, the way of playing - of course it also aroused this desire in me to be a coach, ”said the Dane Svensson at his presentation on Tuesday.

The 41-year-old played for the club from 2007 to 2014 and experienced the current Liverpool coach Klopp (until 2008) and Tuchel who was shot in Paris around Christmas (2009 to 2014).

There has been no contact with Tuchel since he took office, as Svensson described.

He quickly followed up with a smile: "Thomas, if you see that, you can send me something, that would be nice of you."

For the first time, Svensson will be on the sidelines on Saturday (3.30 p.m. / Sky) in the Rhein-Main derby against Eintracht Frankfurt.
