The magazine claims that Michael Zorc and Sebastian Kehl have already held discussions with incoming head coach Marco Rose about areas that need improving in the transfer window. And the 44 year old supports their plan to bring in a new central defender and wide players. A new goalkeeper could also arrive in the summer, but a final decision has not yet been made.
