🇩🇪 Stability in Köpenick: Union Berlin extend Steffen Baumgart's contract | OneFootball

Union Berlin has taken a key strategic step for its immediate future.

The Köpenick club officially announced this Wednesday the renewal of their coach's contract, Steffen Baumgart, thus consolidating a sports project that has managed to bring calm back to the stands of An der Alten Försterei.

A Change of Course Towards Stability

Under Baumgart's direction, the team has undergone a positive transformation in recent weeks. What began as a season fighting for survival has turned into a remarkably stable campaign.

Currently, Union holds the ninth position in the Bundesliga with 22 points, a figure that gives them a solid advantage over the relegation spots and allows them to look towards the upper half of the table with optimism.

The Support of the Management and the "Eiserne" Identity

The sports management, led by Horst Heldt, has not spared praise for the coach. According to Heldt, Baumgart was able to take the reins during a period of maximum difficulty, providing the "clarity and cohesion" needed to reverse the situation.

“The progress of the last few months shows that we are on the right path. Every day we feel how united everyone is, on and off the field. That's why we are convinced that we will continue this path together.”

Baumgart's Vision

The coach himself expressed his satisfaction with the agreement, linking his stay to Union Berlin's unique philosophy. “For me, from the beginning, it was important to work with trust and a clear idea of football. Union represents unity and a consistent attitude on the field, something I value greatly. We have created a stable foundation on which we want to continue building and succeed.”

With this renewal, Union Berlin closes ranks around their leader on the bench, seeking to translate this stability into an even more competitive second half of the championship.
