Tactical Identity
3-4-3Mid BlockAlt: 3-5-2In poss: 3-4-3 / 3-5-2 dominant throughout — Kemlein and Haberer driving from midfield as box-to-box pair, with the back three allowing wing-backs to push high to create width.Out of poss: 5-4-1 / 5-2-3 mid-low block with organized defensive lines, Baumgart's side disciplined in shape and hard to break down.
Physical, direct, set-piece heavy. Baumgart (former Köln coach) bringing energy and confidence. Leopold Querfeld the young CB star. Andrej Ilić as striker.
Bo Svensson departed end 2024; Steffen Baumgart appointed January 2025. 9th place — overperforming expectations significantly. Leopold Querfeld (22, €18m) excellent in defense. Aljoscha Kemlein (21, €12m) excellent DM. Ilyas Ansah (21, €12m) in attack. Squad younger, leaner, but more cohesive. Rönnow reliable in goal.
