Leite was officially introduced as Hannover 96's new trainer on Sunday. As reported earlier in various German press sources, Martin Kind's Hanoverians took advantage of a €500,000 exit clause in the coach's contract to bring him on board in Lower Saxony.
Reflecting upon his final time on the sidelines at a Fürth home fixture last Saturday, Leitl called the experience "highly emotional" and thanked the sell-out crowd of 16,626 for their "unwavering support".
Ein hochemotionaler Nachmittag endet zwar mit einer Niederlage gegen den @BVB - aber auch mit 1000% Support von unseren Fans auf den Rängen. 🙏
