Lars Knudsen takes over
Symptoms of stress! Denmark team manager needs a break
Lars Knudsen will temporarily take over as Denmark's soccer team manager. The 47-year-old is stepping in for national coach Morten Wieghorst, who is suffering from mild stress symptoms and will be absent for the two international matches in the Nations League.
According to the Danish FA, Augsburg co-coach Knudsen will take over on an interim basis for the two matches at the beginning of September and will be supported by former Liverpool professional Daniel Agger.
Long-term solution sought
Denmark will play Switzerland in the Nations League on September 5 and Serbia three days later. For the first time in around four years, Kasper Hjulmand will no longer be in charge of the team, having stepped down after the Danes lost to Germany in the round of 16 at the European Championships. Hjulmand's former assistant coach Wieghorst is to take over until the end of the year while the association looks for a permanent solution until the 2026 World Cup.
