Füchse Title-Winning Coach Jaron Siewert Reveals Oct. 29 Stroke, Targets Return

He says doctors linked the October episode to a previously prescribed blood thinner rather than stress from the job.

Overview

  • In a Dyn interview published March 17, the 32-year-old disclosed he suffered a second stroke on October 29, 2025.
  • Siewert said his doctors told him the recurrence was likely tied to a blood thinner started after his 2022 stroke, not to work-related stress.
  • He reported being switched to a new anticoagulant and said he is nearing full fitness and feeling ready for new duties.
  • According to Siewert, talks with three or four clubs paused after the stroke, and his goal remains to return as a head coach.
  • After guiding Füchse Berlin to their first German championship in June 2025, he and sporting director Stefan Kretzschmar were put on leave in September, and he criticized CEO Bob Hanning for withdrawing a proposed contract.
