In his new function, the 32-year-old will drive forward the training of goalkeepers throughout the Performance Centre in terms of coordination, guiding principles and philosophy and also provide a boost to goalkeeper training in the youth section. Within this new field of activity, Conradi will also be practically involved in the development and foundation areas at Kurtekotten.

The 37-year-old will now bring his 17 years of experience in professional football to the oldest youth team at the Werkself in the new season and provide fine tuning for the U19 goalkeepers ahead of the step up to the senior squad.
