Waldhof Mannheim is parting ways with coach Glawogger after a weak start to the season
SV Waldhof Mannheim made a surprising decision on August 11, 2025. Coach Dominik Glawogger was fired after just two matchdays in the 3rd league. This move follows a disappointing start to the season where the team only picked up one point from a draw and a defeat against Hansa Rostock. The most recent setback, a 1-0 defeat on August 10, 2025, was the last straw.
Glawogger, who only took over as coach at the beginning of April 2025 and extended his contract in June, was unable to meet the expectations of the club's management. Managing Director Sport Gerhard Zuber made it clear that despite the personal continuity in the coaching position, the hoped-for progress in the team was not occurring. The developments in the last few weeks have been anything but positive, as the team made little progress and the line-up against the opponents was characterized by a lack of fresh impetus.
Anger about players and prospects
Glawogger's line-up was noticeable because he relied heavily on players who were almost relegated the previous season, and the new additions were hardly taken into account. For example, Terrence Boyd, who is one of the top performers, found space in the stands. Marcel Seegert is also leaving the club, which could put additional strain on the already tense situation. Zuber made it clear that the measures were necessary to ensure the further development of SV Waldhof.
Overall, Glawogger's time brought only moderate success. In the eight third division games for which he was responsible, the team only managed two wins and achieved a points average of 1.12. This not only recognized the need for change in Mannheim, but also expressed the will to realign sporting development. The _SV Waldhof Mannheim_ now faces the challenge of installing a new coach who can give the team new impetus with fresh ideas and a clear vision.
