For once it looks like the rumours were true, English rookie manager Connor Williamson has taken over control in Stuttgart controversially, Williamson has never worked within football before which has left fans in amazement over his appointment, many fans are claiming that he has only been appointed purely down to his friendship with the teams director. Williamson released this statement earlier on; "It's an incredible honour for me to become the manager of such a huge club, I've loved watching German football for years and I can't wait to hopefully make Stuttgart the most successful German team in history. I understand the fans anxiousness over my appointment however I guarantee I will do my very best to ensure that the team fulfils it's potential."
Williamson then went on to announce that he has brought in ex-premiership footballer Tony Coton in as assistant manager.
