SURPRISE SUGGESTION FROM DEVIN ÖZEK
While İsmail Kartal is a leading candidate among local names, sporting director Devin Özek has made a surprising proposal. Having previously suggested Roger Schmidt to Ali Koç, Özek shifted focus after Schmidt’s candidacy faded and put forward another name from the German coaching school.
SEBASTIAN HOENESS DEVELOPMENT
According to Sercan Hamzaoğlu, Fenerbahce’s sporting director Devin Özek, despite the majority of the board favoring İsmail Kartal, argued for appointing a foreign manager. Özek recommended Stuttgart’s highly regarded manager Sebastian Hoeness, stating that he would be an excellent fit for Fenerbahce.
FANS EXCITED
With differing opinions between the board and Özek, Ali Koç is in the decision-making process, aiming to appoint a new manager soon to boost his credibility ahead of the upcoming presidential election. The mention of Hoeness has excited a significant portion of the fanbase, catching the attention of Koç’s administration.

“SUITABLE FOR FENERBAHCE”
In his presentation to Ali Koç, Özek reportedly highlighted that the 43-year-old Hoeness’s high-pressing, possession-based, and visually appealing style of play makes him an ideal fit for Fenerbahce.
BAYERN MUNICH’S INTEREST
Having enjoyed a successful stint at Stuttgart, where he led the team to the Champions League and won the German Cup, Sebastian Hoeness previously attracted interest from Bayern Munich. However, he declined their offer due to his commitment to Stuttgart’s project.
TENSIONS WITH STUTTGART
This season, however, things have changed. Hoeness was strongly opposed to the sale of key player Nick Woltemade, but the club’s decision to sell him to Newcastle United left Hoeness furious. German media reports noted that after Stuttgart’s recent match, Hoeness appeared angrier and more disappointed than ever before.
PERFORMANCE
The 43-year-old Sebastian Hoeness has coached RB Leipzig U17, Bayern Munich U19, Bayern Munich II, Hoffenheim, and most recently Stuttgart. He won the German Cup with Stuttgart and guided the club to the Champions League for the first time in 15 years.
