Potential roadblock disclosed as Barnsley names the 53-year-old as their top goal to achieve Collins, Neill

Dominik Thalhammer is the next head coach that Barnsley wants, although they could have trouble getting the Austrian a work visa.

 

The appointment of the Austrian coach Thalhammer, whom Barnsley wants, is delayed by work visa concerns before the pivotal Northampton match.
Collins was fired due to his recent poor performance and style of play; Martin Devaney is currently acting as interim manager.

The high-intensity football style and management expertise of Thalhammer may help Barnsley in their quest to reclaim the Championship.
Dominik Thalhammer, an Austrian coach, is the candidate Barnsley wants to hire as their new head coach, although obtaining a work visa will be difficult for him.

Talks between Barnsley and Dominik Thalhammer
The Yorkshire team is now in the League One play-off spots, therefore it was shocking to many outsiders when the Tykes revealed earlier this week that they had fired Neill Collins.

Recent results, nevertheless, raised worries because Barnsley had lost four of their last five games and had not triumphed in any of them. In addition, some supporters expressed disapproval of the play’s manner.

 

In preparation for leading training ahead of the weekend matchup at home against Northampton, which Barnsley has to win to secure a top six finish, Martin Devaney was designated interim manager.

Journalist Alan Nixon has recently disclosed that Barnsley believes Thalhammer is the best candidate to take over Collins’ position permanently.

According to him, the 53-year-old attempted to take over before the Northampton game by flying into England on Monday night, but at first he was unable to obtain a work visa.

According to the update, Barnsley plans to file an appeal, but that will undoubtedly take time, and he’s not even certain that he will have the required paperwork to be able to work in the nation, so he’ll have to wait and see what transpires.

 

The career of Dominik Thalhammer thus far
Beginning two decades ago, when he took over as Admira Wacker’s coach, Thalhammer became the youngest coach in the history of the Austrian Bundesliga.

More recently, he managed the Austrian women’s team for nine years starting in 2011. Before departing Oostende in 2023, he had positions at LASK Linz, Cercle Brugge, and Oostende during the previous three years.

 

As a result, he would come with a respectable resume by League One standards and play the kind of physical game that the Barnsley management so obviously wants in order to develop a club that can eventually win the Championship and establish itself there once more.

Naturally, it is devastating that Barnsley are unsure about their ability to choose Thalhammer, but it seems like they may be prepared to wait given that Devaney will probably be in the dugout for the crucial Northampton match.

Given that the Cobblers are a team that is safely in the middle of the table and that the Tykes have little to lose, the matchup appears to be good on paper. In addition, Oakwell is the home field, thus the supporters there will support the team as they attempt to secure the last three points.
