National League

Pekka Tirkkonen and Pascal Müller are gone. Niklas Gällstedt, André Rötheli, Beat Equilino and Peter Lüthi have taken over for the time being. EHC Kloten is, of course, looking for a new head coach. A new team manager, however, will not be necessarily, Hans-Ulrich Lehmann reveals.

Asked about the profile the new head coach should have, Lehmann tells the Neue Zürcher Zeitung that they should not "make demands" and ideally speak German. Of the available Swiss coaches, everyone is apparently an option: "Reto von Arx, Kevin Schläpfer, and so on."

As long as his son Denis is playing in the first team, Felix Hollenstein will not become head coach of Kloten again, Lehmann states, nor will André Rötheli get a chance. As for the vacant position of the team manager, Lehmann is not sure whether he will fill it again.

He is, however, excluding a double mandate for the new head coach position. Rather, a technical commission might be a solution to their problem: "We have enough athletic competence within our organization."
