At least since the weekend before last, FC Bayern has been afraid of relegation.

After the 1: 2 at SV Meppen, the U23 of the record champions are in 15th place in the third division.

Now the people of Munich are drawing the consequence.

As the club announced on Good Friday, Holger Seitz will be coaching the Bayern-Bank for the last time on Saturday in the home game against the penultimate VfB Lübeck.

And the successors have already been determined.

Danny Schwarz and Martín Demichelis take over the position with the amateurs early.

Seitz will then focus entirely on his position as sports director on campus.

Demichelis has hardly played any games as a coach

"After Sebastian Hoeneß left the club for Hoffenheim at short notice last summer, Holger Seitz agreed to take on the position of amateurs' coach on an interim basis until we have found a suitable successor," said sports director Hasan Salihamidzic.

“We recently reached an agreement with Danny Schwarz and Martín Demichelis that they should both inherit Holger as a duo from the 2021/2022 season.

We now prefer this decision in the interests of everyone. "

This step is also made possible by the increasingly likely termination of the junior national leagues, which means that Schwarz / Demichelis are already available for their new role.

Demichelis has been coach of the U19s since the 2019/2020 season, but had hardly been able to play competitive games with the A-youths due to the pandemic.

Black was responsible for the U17s.
