Poor transfer strategy? Werder chief on Clemens Fritz’s work | OneFootball

Werder Bremen is deeply mired in crisis. The Green-Whites have been waiting for a win for a full eleven Bundesliga matches, and their plunge to 16th place is causing unrest in their surroundings.

Sports director Clemens Fritz, in particular, is under criticism. Both fans and the media mainly accuse the official of poor transfer policy.

Club chairman Klaus Filbry, however, is now clearly backing his sporting director. “He has previously played a stabilizing role alongside Frank Baumann and was already involved in transfers such as that of Senne Lynen, and also brought in Karim Coulibaly from HSV,” Filbry emphasized to the 'Deichstube'.

“Yes, not all transfers have worked out,” Filbry admits, but “by no means” has everything gone wrong either.

Filbry predicts that Fritz is looking “ahead with full energy” and will “emerge stronger” from the current crisis situation.
