Schubert relaxed over Gladbach contract

Andre Schubert says he is relaxed over his contract situation at Borussia Monchengladbach.

The 44-year-old was promoted from the Under-23s to take charge of the first team on an interim basis following the departure of Lucien Favre in September.

Schubert guided Gladbach to six consecutive Bundesliga victories – a magic touch which earned him the label of the "Harry Potter of German football" - before a 0-0 draw with Ingolstadt on Saturday left them sixth in the table.

"I have a three-year contract as Under-23 coach," Schubert told Bild.

"It says in there that under certain circumstances I can sometimes assume control of another team within the club.

"So I have a clear contract situation. If the club wants to change something now, they will certainly come to me."
