Dirk Kall starts as the new managing director at Alemannia Aachen!

A fresh wind is blowing through the Alemannia Aachen office. On December 1, 2025, Dirk Kall took up his new position as commercial director. The Aachen native not only brings experience from business, but also has a deep connection to football. Before joining Alemannia, Kall led a digital marketing agency group and previously worked in various functions at Fortuna Düsseldorf. He also headed the commercial department at Chemnitzer FC. Thanks to his experience in financial planning, which he has been able to gain for Alemannia since 2017, he will now drive forward the strategic development of the club.

Chairman of the supervisory board Ralph Gillessen emphasizes how valuable Kall's expertise is for the future direction of the club. In tandem with Rachid Azzouzi, who started working as Managing Director of Sports on August 1, 2025, Alemannia Aachen wants to set the course for a successful future. Kall and Azzouzi know each other well from their time together at Fortuna Düsseldorf, which promises a smooth collaboration.

New structures for sporting success

Azzouzi, who previously worked at SpVgg Greuther Fürth for seven years, already has clear goals in mind together with his team. Under his aegis, Fürth achieved promotion to the Bundesliga twice. The focus of his work is on squad planning, transfers and strategic orientation in the license and youth areas. Last but not least, he wants to create sustainable structures to ensure long-term sporting success.

The Moroccan native, who grew up in Alsdorf and took his first steps in football at Alemannia Mariadorf, has clearly focused on youth work. In an environment that was characterized by different ideas, including the former sports director Sascha Eller, who worked until the end of May 2025, Azzouzi should now break new ground. There was a mutual decision to dissolve the personal union, which should provide a breath of fresh air in the club's management.

Together with his colleague Kall, Azzouzi will restructure the club team in order to prepare Alemannia in the best possible way for the challenges of the future. Together they set themselves the ambitious goal of bringing Alemannia back into the upper leagues of German football. Fans and supporters of Alemannia can hope for an exciting time, because the course has been set and the makers are ready to get started.

Through the close collaboration between Kall and Azzouzi and the support of Ralph Gillessen, Alemannia Aachen will have the opportunity to tackle the sporting and financial challenges while at the same time regaining the trust of the fans. A good hand in squad planning and strong sponsorship support could be the key to success. Alemannia is ready to continue writing its history.
