Krauss' switch to Rostock: Wollitz speaks of disrespectful timing!

On Saturday there is an important duel in the 3rd league when FC Energie Cottbus has to compete against Hansa Rostock. In the run -up to the game, the change from Maximilian Krauss causes excitement. The 28-year-old striker leaves Cottbus after less than a year and a half and changes to Hansa Rostock. This change was criticized by coach Claus-Dieter Wollitz on Monday evening.

Wollitz described the time of the change as "disrespectful". Krauss, the best one -person player in the league until the 24th matchday, recently showed sloping services. Rumors state that the player may have deliberately collected yellow cards so that they do not have to stand on the pitch against Rostock. Uncalstated voices from the environment of the association indicate that Krauss did not feel valued, which may have contributed to his decision.

The break with Energie Cottbus

weeks ago, Krauss and Cottbus had already agreed on the change, but contract talks about a possible extension were discontinued in March. Meanwhile, Wollitz learned from the final decision of Krauss, who, among others, agreed with a better offer from Rostock. This happened just a few days before an important game against his future club.

Krauss was fan favorite and scored 17 goals in 56 competitive games last season. He learned a lot of support from the fans, who are now disappointed with his departure. Shortly before the announcement of his change, he even deactivated his Instagram account. Hansa Rostock has not yet commented on the change.

table status and effects

FC Energie Cottbus has slipped from first place to fifth in the table in the past few weeks and has only one point behind in fourth place. The upcoming meeting with Hansa Rostock could be crucial for the further course of the season. To make matters worse, Rostock Cottbus has already overtaken in the table.

The future of other Cottbus players remains uncertain because the club management has decided to suspend contract talks during the current season. Trainer Wollitz sees himself in a difficult situation, especially since the sporting goals now appear at risk.
