“Has never given a suspension”: 1860 Munich boss Gorenzel explains Mölders measure

Sports director Günther Gorenzel from TSV 1860 Munich has taken a position in the case of Sascha Mölders. The Lions would not have suspended the striker.

“The fact is: Sascha Mölders has never been suspended and Sascha Mölders has never been suspended,” emphasized Gorenzel on Tuesday in a media round.

As Gorenzel explained, there was a conversation between Mölders, 1860 trainer Michael Köllner and himself on Monday, “where the trainer told him that he was in touch because of the level of performance he was currently experiencing and in the past few weeks with his leadership role, he will not be part of the squad for the next two games “.

The third division had announced in a press release on Monday that Mölders would not be part of the squad “until further notice”. The attacker himself reacted “shocked” on Instagram. The measure against the crowd’s darling, who had become top scorer in the third division last season, caused quite a stir.

“Sascha took it in such a way that the coach no longer plans with him in the medium term, which was never up for discussion,” reported Gorenzel on Tuesday. “Sascha has interpreted it this way and I am now looking for solutions. I am in an intensive exchange with his advisor in order to clarify the situation and bring about a solution for everyone involved.”

Gorenzel also suggested to Mölders “to concentrate again exclusively on football here in 1860 and to cut back on his secondary activities as a columnist and TV expert”. According to Gorenzel, Köllner’s suggestion was that Mölders get back in shape with individual training.
