Sinsheim (AP) - football coach Sebastian Hoeneß from TSG 1899 Hoffenheim has expressed himself reluctantly when asked about reinforcements for the second half of the Bundesliga.

«I am in constant contact with our manager Alexander Rosen.

I have full confidence in our team, so the view remains rather internal, ”said Hoeneß in a“ Sport Bild ”interview.

"We want to advance and develop the players who are with us."

Hoeneß is under pressure after five defeats in six competitive games and the 0: 4 against FC Schalke 04.

Last but not least, sports director Rosen provided support.

However, the 38-year-old nephew of Uli Hoeneß and son of Dieter Hoeneß can no longer afford many setbacks - especially since Arminia Bielefeld, Hertha BSC (away) and 1. FC Cologne as upcoming opponents are not exactly three top-class players.

The Europa League participant from Kraichgau has slipped into the lower third of the table and is 14th only four points ahead of the relegation place.

Hoffenheim often has to struggle with personnel problems this season.

In addition to injuries, positive corona tests are also causing problems for the team.

"This personnel situation, in a historic Bundesliga season with extreme frequency, should be known to everyone by now," said Hoeneß.

The fact that this has an impact cannot be ignored. "
