"High pressure, "full throttle"-football and a strong organisation are Wieland's strenghts in his philosophy", sporting manager Sander Van Praet learned from his contacts with our new coach. "He wants to play a heathy aggressive type of football at Beerschot next season."
Andreas Wieland was assistent coach at LASK and took over from Dominik Thalhammer when he was sacked. He coached LASK for 32 games in the Austrian Bundesliga, the Austrian Cup and the UEFA Conference League where he finished top in Group A but was eventually eliminated by Slavia Prague.
"I can't wait to get started here at Beerschot", Andreas Wieland said in a first reaction. "I look forward to this new challenge and meeting the players and the supporters."
The next couple of days Andreas Wieland will meet up with staff members at Beerschot to get to know eachother. The first training session is scheduled for June 20th. The pre season schedule with all preparation games and friendlies will be communicated during the first week of June.
