2. Bundesliga: Much to Clarify at FC - Does Funkel Continue with 71?

At the age of 71, Friedhelm Funkel once again became a career coach. After the Bundesliga return of 1. FC Cologne, some things have to be clarified as quickly as possible in Cologne. The most exciting question: Does Funkel remain?

Trainer Friedhelm Funkel can imagine a stay at 1. FC Köln. "I feel strong enough, I am fit and have an incredibly good coaching staff. I don't rule it out for myself. There's nothing against it," says the 71-year-old.

With a lot of peace and quiet Friedhelm Funkel maneuvered the 1st FC Cologne through an eventful week to the championship in the second league – and now even wants to continue. No less impressive: the SV Elversberg.

With two victories from the last two games Friedhelm Funkel has led the 1st FC Köln back into the Bundesliga. Whether the rise hero remains the club for longer, that leaves the coach routiner open in conversation with RTL/ntv and sport.de.

Will Friedhelm Funkel return to the Bundesliga as a coach again? This is obviously conceivable for the 71-year-old. His loud colleague Torsten Lieberknecht gives the FC a clear advice.

Today, the last round was also played in the German "Cvajta".
