Jochen Schneider (51) has a new job. The former Schalke sports director has signed on in New York
16 months have passed, Schalke was close to relegation as Bundesliga last, since Jochen Schneider left his post as S04 sports director. In the meantime, the traditional club has returned to the Bundesliga – and Schneider to the Red Bull cosmos.
After his engagements as Coordinator Sport Global Soccer at Red Bull GmbH and Head of Sport at RB Leipzig, the now 51-year-old is now Head of Sports at the New York Red Bulls in the MLS – the “fastest growing football league in the world” according to Schneider. He is very pleased about this.
