The Danish U21 national team needs a new boss.
DBU inform that Niels Frederiksen stops after the european championship finals this summer.
– Niels has delivered a topprofessionelt job here in DBU. He has developed both the players and staff around the U21-national team – and in terms of impact can all see how big a success the four-year, Niels has been, said DBU’s elitechef, Flemming Berg, dbu.dk, which also highlights that fodboldforbundet regret that he Niels Frederiksen stops.
His last task will be the european championships in Italy this summer, where Denmark will meet Germany, Austria and Serbia.
Niels Frederiksen’s contract was extended in 2017 and is set to expire this summer, where Niels Frederiksen so go out and find another job.
– As a coach one needs to be very clear in what you want, and be persistent, as the time with the players is limited. There is no time to ‘process’. So, while it is and has been an instructive way to work, I am also driven to develop fodboldprojekter and the people, which are included.
And since we as a national coach working with two-year qualification periods, it is a natural occasion to stop after the EM, and use the occasion to seek new challenges, where I as the coach have a more daily work with the development of the team and the individual player, says Niels Frederiksen to DBU’s website and indicates that the next job will be in a club rather than a national team.
The former Lyngby and Esbjerg coach in the past been referred to as one of the nominees to Kasper Hjulmands job in FC Nordsjælland, when he stops after this season.
The 48-year-old coach has been at the forefront of the Danish U21 national team 41 times with 24 wins, seven draws and ten defeats to follow.
