Despite his departure, Fischer remains confident that Union Berlin can continue its success under Hofschneider’s leadership. In the interview, Fischer praised Hofschneider for his ability to build on what he had started at Union Berlin and said that he believes Hofschneider will be able to take the team even further than he did. He also highlighted some of the key players who have been instrumental in helping the team reach its current level of success such as Christopher Trimmel, Sebastian Griesbeck and Grischa Prömel. Fischer went on to express his admiration for Union Berlin’s supporters and said that they are one of the main reasons why he believes that there is no end in sight for their success story. He added that it was a privilege to work with such passionate fans who always showed their support for him during his time at the club. The former manager concluded by saying that although he is no longer part of Union Berlin, he will always remain a fan and wishes them all the best for their future endeavors.
