Huddersfield Town

Head Coach André Breitenreiter joined Huddersfield Town in February 2024

André is known in his native land as an expert in getting teams into the German top division.

He made his name by steering SC Paderborn 07 to the Bundesliga for the first time in the club’s history in 2014, with a last day win securing an unlikely promotion.

His two seasons at the club soon earned him the top job at Bundesliga side FC Schalke 04, where he earned them Europa League football through a fifth-placed finish in 2016.

André soon earned his second promotion from the 2. Bundesliga as manager of Hannover 96 in the 2016/17 campaign.

With nearly 150 games as a manager in the Bundesliga under his belt, he moved to Switzerland and steered FC Zurich to a shock Swiss Super League title in 2022, ending the club’s 13-year wait for a championship. It’s the only season in the last six in which BSC Young Boys didn’t win the division.
