Kohfeldt commits to Werder Bremen until 2023

Florian Kohfeldt has signed a new four-year contract at Werder Bremen, the club announced on Tuesday.

Kohfeldt has transformed Werder s fortunes since his appointment in October 2017, initially on a temporary basis, steering them away from Bundesliga relegation danger that season and earning a deal until 2021.

After Werder finished eighth and narrowly missed out on European qualification in 2018-19, Kohfeldt has again been rewarded with fresh terms.

I got a chance here as a young coach in very difficult times and am pleased that we have laid a good foundation in the past two years, said the 36-year-old. 

I m convinced this is just the beginning for the club. I m pleased to continue my work with the coaching team.
