Danny Rohl, the former Sheffield Wednesday manager, has responded to claims suggesting he had lost interest in the job before his tenure ended. Despite leading the club to a miraculous survival in his first season and achieving a 12th place finish in the Championship in 2024/25, Rohl’s time with the Owls took a turn for the worse due to financial difficulties and his active pursuit of a new job, leading to unrest among the players and fans.
Addressing criticisms of his dedication to the role, Rohl vehemently denied such claims in an interview with The Times. He highlighted his commitment by citing a specific instance where he worked throughout the night to prepare for a match against Norwich, following a game against Plymouth, demonstrating his unwavering dedication to his responsibilities.
While Rohl was linked with potential managerial positions at Southampton, Leicester City, and Middlesbrough over the summer, he was not successful in securing any of these opportunities. Despite fan calls for his appointment at Sheffield United, it is considered more likely that Rohl may pursue a new managerial position in his native Germany.
