Erkenbrecher signed a four-month deal with Iran's first division football
team Esteqlal Tehran to become their new assistant coach, the media said
Tuesday.
Erkenbrecher who terminated his contract with German third division squad SC
Paderborn, will immediately join his new team in Tehran.
Esteqlal-e Tehran are coached by Erkenbrecher's compatriot Roland Koch who
himself has been rumored to be on the verge of being dismissed following his
team's frustrating performance this season.
