New sporting director wanted! Ex-international linked with Hannover?

Hannover 96 continue to grapple with instability at the top following their recent 2-1 win over Dynamo Dresden. Currently sitting in 12th place in the second division, the club is struggling to meet its own expectations. The departure of managing director Jonas Boldt after only five months has only added to the turmoil. Sky reports that former Germany international Marko Marin, who played for Borussia Mönchengladbach and Werder Bremen, is among the candidates being considered for the vacant sporting director position.

The 37-year-old has gained management experience at Red Star Belgrade since retiring as a player and has served as technical director at Red Star since spring 2023. While Martin Kind, the club patron, is said to have a high opinion of Marin, Hannover's leadership has only shortlisted three candidates for the role, with Marin not currently considered the frontrunner.
