Mönchengladbach (dpa / lnw) - Assistant coach Frank Geideck is leaving Borussia Mönchengladbach after 13 years. The 55-year-old will be an assistant in the coaching team of former Gladbach head coach Marco Rose at RB Leipzig. This was announced by the Saxon Bundesliga soccer club on Thursday. Geideck had been Eugen Polanski's assistant in the Borussia regional league team in Gladbach since the summer after several years as an assistant coach.

In 2009 he came to Borussia with Michael Frontzeck. Born in Bielefeld, he worked in Gladbach under Frontzeck, Lucien Favre, André Schubert, Dieter Hecking, Rose and Adi Hütter. The current Gladbach head coach Daniel Farke brought his own coaching staff with him.
