The German head coach Jens Bürkle has signed a new long-term contract with TSV Hannover-Burgdorf.

The 35-year-old former HBW Balingen-Weilstetten-player Jens Bürkle had a great first season in the German Bundesliga-club TSV Hannover-Burgdorf last season. "Die Recken" finished seventh - just outside the placements, which gave qualification for the EHF Cup.

Now the two parts have made a new agreement to the summer of 2019.
