TSG Hoffenheim President Jörg Albrecht Resigns

Jörg Albrecht has resigned from his position as President of the Bundesliga club TSG 1899 Hoffenheim. The resignation follows personal health challenges, as Albrecht had publicly disclosed an ALS diagnosis in autumn 2024. He is expected to return in an interim capacity due to ongoing personnel changes within the club. Albrecht previously served as the Mayor of Sinsheim. He previously stepped down in November 2025 due to health reasons but returned to serve as interim president for approximately four weeks. Albrecht stated his intention to help the club return to stability and generate sporting success. His departure follows a period of leadership instability at the Bundesliga club earlier in 2026. The resignation follows the previous departure of interim chairman Christoph Henslert.
