kicker reports that a decision on the future of RB Leipzig head coach Marco Rose will be made over the upcoming winter break.
Leipzig have two difficult games left in the league ahead of the winter break, first against Eintracht Frankfurt next Sunday and then Bayern Munich on Friday on the final Bundesliga matchday before the break. They also have a tough Champions League fixture against Aston Villa, where they could be knocked out at the league phase if they do not win.
There has been a change in fortunes in the past week as Leipzig beat Frankfurt 3-0 in the DFB Pokal before also seeing off Holstien Kiel at the weekend. All the while the club has undergone an injury crisis with Leipzig only having 13 fit senior players for their trip to the North of Germany on Saturday.
A meeting will take place at the Cotteweg training ground over the winter break where there will be an analysis of the first half of the season. Marco Rose’s former manager at Mainz during his playing days, Jürgen Klopp will then join the Red Bull group in January, where he can provide support for the Leipzig head coach.
