Henning Witjes has stepped down as head coach of TSV Marl-Hüls, citing differences with part of the squad. The club announced that a playing co‑coach will assume temporary charge while preparations for the upcoming season continue.

Separately, midfielder Ahmet Acar received a three‑match ban that will keep him out of the season opener and the A‑League derby against VfB Hüls II. Despite the disciplinary and staffing setbacks, TSV Marl-Hüls intends to proceed with its preparation for the city championship.
