Fleetwood Town Head Coach Uwe Rosler has signed a new contract keeping him at the club until the summer of 2020.



Rosler guided the Cod Army to a record breaking fourth place finish in League One last season and was the subject of interest from a number of clubs this summer.

And after putting pen-to-paper on a long term commitment at Highbury Stadium, the 48-year-old says he’s hugely excited by what can be achieved at Fleetwood Town.

“Fleetwood Town is a unique club doing things differently to a lot of other clubs,” said Rosler.

“What excites me about this club is that we have a clear DNA, we make it clear what we stand for and what we are going for in players. I think this clarity impresses me and for me we will have to build a new team after losing some very important players – that excites me.

“I look forward to working with the players, the leaders of the club and all the staff members. I enjoy myself here and the most important thing is when at work to enjoy yourself.”

Rosler is optimistic ahead of pre-season – which started on Monday – and the fans are backing the club too with season ticket sales going well.

“I think we did really well but this season we must start again on zero and work again on the margins,” added Rosler.

“The players have reported back in a very good spirit with a good mentality and we are here to entertain our supporters again.

“We want to fill the stadium more next season and for that we need our wonderful supporters. I hope they will be with us again next season!”
