Hans-Dieter Flick coached Hoffenheim for five years in the third division before being sacked in 2005.

Hoffenheim has appointed former Germany assistant coach Hans-Dieter Flick as their managing director.

Hoffenheim, who reached the Champions League playoffs after their best-ever Bundesliga season, says Flick takes over on July 1, when he will share leadership duties with Peter Goerlich and Frank Briel.

Alexander Rosen remains as sporting director and Julian Nagelsmann, the youngest coach in the league at 29, will remain in charge of the senior team.

The 52-year-old Flick, who played for Bayern Munich and Cologne between 1985 and 1993 before a knee-injury ultimately cut short his career, was Germany coach Joachim Low's assistant from 2006 through the World Cup win in 2014. He then took over as sporting director of the German football federation.

Flick previously coached Hoffenheim when the club was playing at lower levels.
