Heracles Almelo appoints Vincent Heilmann as new coach

Heracles Almelo have named Vincent Heilmann as their new head coach. The 29‑year‑old Brabander takes charge of the Dutch club following the departure of Ernest Faber. The appointment comes after the team’s relegation from the Eredivisie.

Heilmann, a native of the Brabant region, arrives at the club at the age of 29. His previous experience in coaching is not detailed in the announcement. The club expects him to lead the squad in the upcoming campaign.

Ernest Faber, who guided Heracles during the last season, left the position after the club dropped to the second tier. His tenure ended with the relegation from the top flight. The change marks a new chapter for the organization.

Heracles Almelo, based in Almelo, Netherlands, will look to regain its Eredivisie status this season. The club aims to restore its place among the country’s top teams. The new appointment is a key part of that strategy.

Heilmann will begin preparations with the squad immediately, focusing on the upcoming league fixtures. The coach’s task will be to restore the club’s status at the highest level. Supporters will watch closely as the new era unfolds.
