Is Manuel Baum the Right Coach for FCA?

A Unique Promise to His Daughter

Manuel Baum, the interim coach of FCA, has made a heartfelt commitment to his daughter Noemi. He promised her a horse if he ever managed to reach 100 Bundesliga matches as a coach. This revelation came during an interview with “Blickpunkt Sport” on Bayerischer Rundfunk.

An Unexpected Milestone

Initially, Baum believed that reaching such a milestone was unlikely, saying to himself, “It’s not going to happen anyway.” However, with his unexpected return to the coaching position following Sandro Wagner’s exit, this impressive achievement is now within striking distance.

Upcoming Match Against Eintracht Frankfurt

The 46-year-old coach has the opportunity to attain this milestone in the upcoming match against Eintracht Frankfurt on Saturday. If successful, he will be heading to the stables to get that much-anticipated horse!

A Comedic Outlook on Fatherhood

Baum approaches this situation with a sense of humor but also acknowledges that he will need to “sort something out at home.” Any father can relate to that challenge!
