Egon Coordes is dead – Long-time assistant coach to Lattek, Heynckes and Trapattoni

Coordes's head coaching stints in the first and second divisions were less successful. He was forced to leave VfB Stuttgart (1986/87), Hamburger SV (1992), and Hannover 96 (1995/96) early in each of these seasons. He also worked as a coach in Austria, Switzerland, the Gulf region, and briefly in Iran in 1999.
