Diego Benaglio returns to VfL Wolfsburg as a supervisory board member!

Shortly before July 1st, 2025, there is exciting news from Wolfsburg: Former Swiss national goalkeeper Diego Benaglio is returning to the supervisory board of VfL Wolfsburg. After his successful career, which won him the hearts of fans from 2008 to 2017, he will be part of the control committee from July 1, 2025. That's what she reports Bluewin.

Benaglio experienced his greatest football moments at Wolfsburg: he led the team to the German championship in 2009 and won the DFB Cup in 2015. After his time in the Bundesliga, the talented goalkeeper worked for AS Monaco before returning to his hometown club. His involvement in the supervisory board is initiated by Sebastian Rudolph, the chairman of the committee. He places great emphasis on enriching the supervisory board with sporting expertise, and Benaglio is viewed as the ideal candidate with his extensive experience.

Wolfsburg and his second home

Benaglio's return is not only a return to his former club, but also to his roots: “VfL is my club, and Wolfsburg is my second home,” said the 41-year-old. This emotional connection makes the return particularly valuable. He will certainly play an important role in actively shaping the club's future and making the right sporting decisions.

In the time since his move to Monaco, VfL Wolfsburg has always been an important part of Benaglio's life and his clear identification with the club is appreciated by many. This could also help fans to identify with the supervisory board again and create a new feeling of togetherness and trust.

A part of VfL history

Those who are familiar with VfL know that the club has been through ups and downs since its relegation to the amateur league in 1978. The fans are always looking forward to the next big success. Benaglio, meanwhile, is one of the personalities closely linked to the club's success story. His knowledge and experience in dealing with pressure situations will certainly be an asset to VfL's sporting interests.

It remains exciting to see how the club's further developments will develop. A look at the past shows that there were both bright and dark sides, even if the connection between Benaglio and VfL Wolfsburg was always a positive constant. With a powerful supervisory board and the right strategy, VfL will work specifically to further establish itself in the Bundesliga.

For everyone who is interested in the future of VfL Wolfsburg, the return of Diego Benaglio will be an important signal. It is hoped that his commitment can give the club new impetus and usher in a new era of success.
