According to a report, Hertha BSC has to look for a new managing director again after less than a year.
The impending departure of Carsten Schmidt is the next setback on the hoped-for path to the top European club.
Berlin - The possible departure of the club boss Carsten Schmidt, who was brought in as a reformer, is causing new unrest at the crisis-ridden Hertha BSC.
A few minutes before the planned start of training on Tuesday, the "Tagesspiegel" reported that the managing director would be leaving the Berlin Bundesliga club after less than a year.
Personal reasons should be decisive, wrote the newspaper.
The club initially did not comment on the personnel.
“I can't confirm anything.
I can only confirm that I'm watching the training here now, ”said sports director Arne Friedrich on the way to the field.
Defense chief Dedryck Boyata returned to team training there on Tuesday.
Anyway.
The club will be much more concerned with the possible departure of Schmidt.
With the CEO, the head of the operational business of the association is about to take off; the management, which was only restructured last year, would already be without a boss again.
Schmidt only took up his position at Hertha on December 1, 2020.
Before that, the manager worked for four years as head of the TV broadcaster Sky in Munich.
Schmidt had come to the Spree as a new strong man, began his work alongside the then sports director Michael Preetz and financial director Ingo Schiller.
Schmidt was responsible for leading the trio.

14 years Heidenheim coach: Schmidt wants more goal danger
Long-running coach Frank Schmidt does not want to deal with his extraordinary service anniversary, at least in public.

The FCH is usually safe defensively and has many chances offensive, the previous goal difference of 5:
14 years Heidenheim coach: Schmidt wants more goal danger
Investor Lars Windhorst, under whose influence the new structure was certainly created, was impressed by Schmidt's appointment. “His vita and his competence fit very well with the new path that Hertha BSC has taken. He is a media and marketing professional. A football club also lives from its public appearance, ”said Windhorst at the time. However, it was precisely this public image that was repeatedly wavered during Schmidt's tenure.
After a month of getting to know each other, the crisis at the self-proclaimed “Big City Club” came to a head at the end of January and Schmidt also got to know the darker side of the business.
Both coach Bruno Labbadia and Preetz had to leave the club.
Pal Dardai took over as coach and kept Hertha in the Bundesliga.
Schmidt recruited Fredi Bobic from Eintracht Frankfurt as the new head of sport, but sporting success is still a long way off.
After seven games, Hertha is only in 14th place and coach Dardai is under criticism.
