Earlier this week, the Bears relieved Jussi Tapola of his duties. They are thus now looking for his successor. 

Christian Wohlwend

According to Klaus Zaugg ("Watson"), Christian Wohlwend's agent has supposedly contacted Martin Plüss, SC Bern's head of sport, to place his client as a potential candidate.

Asked about the rumor by the "Oltner Tagblatt", the head coach of EHC Olten had this to say: "I've been doing this job for 20 years now. [...] think it's therefore legitimate and quite normal for my name to come up.” He also added that as long as no one contacts him, he will not look further into it. 

Wohlwend's contract includes an opt-out clause. However, it can only be used at the end of the season. SC Bern would thus have to buy Wohlwend out of his contract. 

Wohlwend, of course, is not the only rumored candidate. Klaus Zaugg as well as "Blick" report that Christian Dubé's name has also been circulating in the capital city. The former head coach of HC Fribourg-Gottéron is currently between jobs and would thus be available.
