Mainz (AP) - Soccer coach Bo Svensson from Bundesliga club 1. FSV Mainz 05 has once again declared that he has waived an exit clause.
"For me personally, it would be strange if I said, I sign with Mainz 05 that we want to build something together and at the same time I say with an exit clause: If the situation improves faster in twelve months, I would like to get out," said the 41-year-old to the editorial network Germany (RND): "Then I cannot speak of a 'complete conviction'. Therefore it was never considered."
The former Danish international revealed that he had taken a lot with him from his former coaches Jürgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel: “That it's not just about football, but also about standing for something, namely, despite all the passion, always treating people with respect . And that you have a certain authority, a certain self-confidence, ”said the former Bundesliga professional. Svensson was under contract with Borussia Mönchengladbach and Mainz - the current Liverpool coach Klopp (53) and the current Chelsea coach Tuchel (47) were his coaches at Mainz.
"I've played a lot longer under Thomas than under 'Kloppo': Of course that influenced me a lot as a coach, how he managed a team and solved various situations. I've already stolen one or two training exercises from him," said Svensson. Both coaches are "extraordinary people".
