Daniel Stendel (born April 4, 1974 in Frankfurt (Oder) ) is a former German soccer player and today's coach . Most recently he was the head coach of the Scottish club Heart of Midlothian .

Career

Stendel began his career in 1981 at FC Vorwärts Frankfurt / Oder (from February 1991: FC Victoria '91 Frankfurt / Oder), for whom he made his debut in the third-class amateur league in the 1991/92 season as an A-youth (18 games / 4 goals). In the 1995/96 season he rose from the second team , for which he played since summer 1992, to professional football at Hamburger SV . There he was unable to assert himself permanently and moved first to SV Meppen and later to FC Gütersloh in the 2nd Bundesliga . From 1999 to 2006 the striker played for Hannover 96 . In the 2001/02 season he rose to the Bundesliga with Hannover 96 . This season he scored the most goals of the season in his career with 16 goals. In the Bundesliga he stayed in the extended circle of regular players for three years. In the 2005/06 season he only played six games. For the following season 2006/07 he moved to the Regionalliga Nord for FC St. Pauli , with which he signed a contract valid until 2008. In 2007 he rose to the 2nd Bundesliga with the club.

For the 2007/08 season he moved back to Hannover 96; this time, however, he played with the amateur team in the league. At the same time he worked there as an assistant coach and rose with his team to the new Regionalliga Nord (4th division). After retiring a year later, he was coach of the U-17; In 2013 he moved to the U-19.

At the beginning of April 2016, six game days before the end of the 2015/16 season , Stendel took over the Bundesliga team, which was ten points behind the relegation position in the last place in the table, from Thomas Schaaf , who was on leave , initially until the end of the season. The team was transformed under Stendel and won the hearts of angry fans and the local media back. 96 remained unbeaten in the first three games against teams from the top half of the table, but the relegation was mathematically certain early on. Stendel then signed a new head coach contract, which was valid until June 30, 2018. For the final of the DFB Junior Club Cup 2016 , Stendel returned to the bench of the U-19 team; the game was won 4-2.

In the second division season 2016/17, 96 was under Stendel at the half-way point in the table. After the team slipped to fourth place in March 2017 and could not convince in terms of play either, Stendel was released on March 20, 2017 and André Breitenreiter signed as his successor. At the beginning of June 2018, Stendel was introduced as the new coach at the English second division relegated FC Barnsley . With this he managed to get promoted back to the EFL Championship straight away in his first season . After the team started the 2019/20 season with just six points from the first eleven league games and was second to last in the table, he was dismissed on October 8, 2019.

At the beginning of December 2019, Stendel took over the coaching position at the Scottish first division club Heart of Midlothian . There he made headlines in January 2020 after he sorted out team captain Christophe Berra , midfield veteran Glenn Whelan and Austin MacPhee , Jon Daly and Liam Fox from the coaching staff . He won five of 17 games with the "Hearts" and reached the semi-finals in the Scottish Cup . After the early termination of the 2019/20 season in mid-May 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic , the league association applied the quotient rule . Consequently, the Hearts had to relegate to the championship with Stendel as bottom of the table . On June 21, 2020, his successor was introduced as trainer Robbie Neilson . Stendel officially left the club a day later together with his assistant coach Jörg Sievers .
