Mannheim (dpa / lsw) - Trainer Sebastian Hinze has announced his departure from the Bundesliga handball players of Bergisches HC in the summer of 2022, thus fueling speculation about an involvement with league rivals Rhein-Neckar Löwen.

The two-time German champion is looking for a successor for Martin Schwalb, who is leaving the club this summer.

Should the Nordbadener want to have Hinze earlier, a transfer fee would be due.

Hinze has been one of the preferred candidates for the coaching position for weeks, he himself told the “Mannheimer Morgen” when asked about a commitment with the Lions: “I have other worries right now.

We have Covid cases on the team. "

In fact, the BHC is in quarantine with two players after positive corona tests.

Löwen sports director Oliver Roggisch has not commented on names in the search for a trainer for weeks, but speaks of a "long-term solution" that one strives for so that one can "build something up" and, in perspective, "attack at the top" again.

Since the farewell of the two-time master trainer Nikolaj Jacobsen there has been no constancy in the coaching bench of the North Baden team.

Kristján Andrésson was released in February last year after less than eight months.

He was followed by Schwalb, who left the club at the end of the season for personal reasons.
