RB Leipzig CEO Oliver Mintzlaff on Jesse Marsch: “We have been able to recruit our main head coach target.”

Speaking through the club’s official channels, RB Leipzig CEO Oliver Mintzlaff commented on incoming head coach Jesse Marsch who will succeed Julian Nagelsmann in the summer.

“In Jesse Marsch, we have been able to recruit our main head coach target and quickly fill the most important position in the sporting side of the club with a top coach,” said Mintzlaff.

“Jesse has been part of the Red Bull football group for over six years now and has done incredible work in all his roles so far, constantly developing step-by-step. It’s of course a great advantage that he already worked for a year at RB Leipzig.

“Jesse knows the club, the city of Leipzig and, above all, the club and playing philosophy. Alongside his qualities as a coach, Jesse is characterised above all by his positively ambitious style, which he uses to motivate and engage the people and around the club.”
