Fischer: Mainz Still Fighting Despite Turnaround

Taking over in December when Mainz was last with just six points, Fischer has overseen a remarkable turnaround. His team has collected 25 points in 2026, moved into 9th place, and remains in the Conference League quarterfinals.

Despite the improvement, Fischer refuses to declare safety, stating, 'We're still in the relegation battle, and nothing has been achieved yet.' His team has now taken points off Bayern, Leverkusen, Leipzig, Frankfurt, and Hoffenheim since his arrival.
