BERLIN (Reuters) - Relegation-threatened Hertha Berlin face a tough Bundesliga restart with a match against fellow strugglers VfL Bochum followed by games against VfL Wolfsburg and the Berlin derby against Union, but club bosses are feeling confident.
Hertha have gone through turbulent times in recent seasons with a massive 350 million euro investment from financier Lars Windhorst not leading to better results on the pitch with the club continuing to struggle in the top division.
"We are fully aware of the situation we are in and that we have a lot of work in front of us," Hertha sports director Fredi Bobic said on Friday. "We are not saying everything is super but we have a compact team that is also healthy in numbers and as a united team we must land these points," he told reporters in Florida.
