Union Berlin were on quite the ride for a few years as a club, having achieved a higher league finish for six consecutive seasons, which included a promotion to the Bundesliga and even UEFA Champions League football.

But ever since their top-four finish in 2022/23, which earned them that place among Europe’s elite, things have been going south for the club from Germany’s capital.

Having narrowly avoided relegation last season by finishing one spot above the relegation play-offs, doing so only on goal difference over Bochum, they hired former Mainz manager Bo Svensson in the summer, looking to bounce back after a rough season.

Their ambitions were to rediscover their old heights and climb back up the table into the top half, but unfortunately for them, it’s been a continuation of the struggles they endured last term.

This led to a coaching change mid-season after the Bundesliga went on a three-week winter break.
