Potential successor to Val

[POGGYWELL]

Despite the contract extension, the Hartbergers will in all probability lose Markus Schopp. The 47-year-old coach is expected to sign with Barnsley FC in the second-highest English division in the next few days. The negotiations are about to be concluded, and the English media also see Schopp as a logical successor.

The second division has to react as ex-Lask coach Valerien Ismael moves to West Bromwich. The Austrians Michael Sollbauer and Dominik Frieser are also under contract in Barnsley. With Gerhard Struber, an Austrian has already sat in the coaching bench.

TSV chairman Erich Korherr did not want to confirm anything yet. "Markus Schopp will certainly still be there during training and the test match on Saturday," explains Korherr, who does not want to plan any longer. "I don't want to give you any information about that. With Florian Flecker we saw how fast it can go."
