German manager Michael Skibbe has signed a 1.5 year deal with Eskişehirspor.

“I am glad to be back at Eskişehirspor,” Skibbe said speaking at his signing ceremony.

“I only spent six months here last time but it was enough to make a lifelong friendship with club president Mesut Hoşcan. I came here three years ago but was not able to complete my job, now I am back. 

“We have a great team, this is a fantastic club and the new stadium is going to really take things to the next level. There is a lot of work to do here but there is also a lot of potential, we are a club who will be challenging for the top spots in the near future.”

Skibbe spent six months at EsEs during the 2010-11 seasons during which time he took charge of 17 games, winning nine, drawing three and losing five.
