Rydlewicz is banned from the house: Shock for Energie Cottbus!
In an unexpected turn of events, former Bundesliga professional Rene Rydlewicz-Gubanow, 51, has been banned from working at Energie Cottbus. This reports Bild.de. Rydlewicz, who has a successful career with 278 Bundesliga games, especially for Hansa Rostock, was sporting director at Hansa Rostock and also youth coach at Energie Cottbus after his playing career. During his time as a coach, he was crucial for youth work and worked as an assistant coach in various DFB junior teams. He was also interim coach of Cottbus' professional teams twice, but each time only for a single game.
The current house ban has its origins in a conflict surrounding the transfer of promising youth player Linus Güther. The young talent is considered one of the biggest hopes after making his debut with the DFB in May and recently signed a contract with Union Berlin. Energie Cottbus alleges that Rydlewicz was involved in this transfer, which he denies. According to Energy President Sebastian Lemke, this incident could potentially even have legal consequences, as Güther has a contract until 2028, which, it is claimed, was signed by his parents.
Double trouble
The situation is made even more tense by the fact that Rydlewicz's son Oskar Gubanow is also moving to Union Berlin. This family entanglement could make things even more complicated for Rydlewicz. In the past, the talented Linus Güther and his teammates competed, among other things, at the final round of the FLB State Indoor Championships, where Energie Cottbus won the group. In its last year, the club's youth showed strong performances, including winning the Silver City Cup in Freiberg.
A look into the past
The development of football in Germany since the Second World War has resulted in fan culture changing significantly. In the early years, the games were mainly attended by the working class, although a massive change only occurred with the founding of the Bundesliga in 1963 and the 1974 World Cup. Young fans began to support their teams more passionately, inspired by British role models. Singing and fan culture became the norm in stadiums, with the Ultra movement developing since the 1990s, bringing with it a new form of emotional support. Ultras, unlike hooligans, focus on the game itself and support their teams with chants and visual effects such as Bengal flares, which greatly shapes the atmosphere at games, such as on Planet knowledge explained.
Digitalization and the influence of social media have only increased this.
While fan culture is constantly evolving, the situation surrounding Rydlewicz and Energie Cottbus remains an example of the sometimes fiercely competitive world of football, where discussions about transfers and personal relationships often overshadow what is happening on the pitch. The coming weeks could therefore be just as interesting as further developments surrounding the club and the former player unfold.
