Fürth (dpa / lby) - Assistant coach Rainer Widmayer will look after Bundesliga relegated SpVgg Greuther Fürth after the separation from Marc Schneider on Sunday (1.30 p.m.) at 1. FC Heidenheim on the sidelines. "That's my job and then you can see what's next," said the 55-year-old on Friday. "I'm someone who doesn't shy away from this task and then I help the club. When the story is over I have no problem whatsoever going back to my position as an assistant coach."
Widmayer has been an assistant coach in Fürth since this summer. Together with his colleague Stefan Kleineheismann, the long-standing assistant coach of VfB Stuttgart and Hertha BSC prepares the Franconian table-16. to the difficult away game in the 2nd Bundesliga. "We're going to Heidenheim to be successful," emphasized Widmayer, who called for "tactical discipline and compactness" from the team.
After the separation of the Swiss Schneider, Fürth's managing director Rachid Azzouzi is looking for a coach. There has recently been speculation about names such as Alexander Zorniger (most recently Apollon Limassol) or Patrick Glöckner (most recently Waldhof Mannheim).
