Henriksen joins from Swiss club Zurich and is the second Danish coach at Mainz this season after Bo Svensson resigned in November. Mainz`s head of sport Christian Heidel said the club hopes Henriksen`s "pragmatic, yet courageous and ultimately successful, brand of football" will be a good fit for the relegation fight

Mainz hired Bo Henriksen as coach on Tuesday as it tries to avoid relegation from the Bundesliga. Henriksen replaces Jan Siewert, who was dismissed Monday after less than three months in charge. Mainz is second-to-last in the 18-team league after a 3-1 loss to Stuttgart on Sunday.
