Salzburg opponents Chelsea fire coach Thomas Tuchel
The star coach, who took office in January 2021 and won the Champions League a few months later, should no longer come to an analysis. As before in Paris, the engagement of the German ended prematurely after the club management had repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the performance.
Chelsea FC thanked Tuchel in a public statement, but went on to write: “As the new ownership group has reached 100 days of taking over the club and continues their hard work to take the club forward, the new owners are confident that it is the the timing is right for this move.” The rest of the coaching staff will look after the team in preparation for the forthcoming games, while the club works to “quickly appoint a new head coach,” it said.
Tedesco has to go to Leipzig
There is also an early change of coach in Leipzig. The Red Bull club announced the end of its collaboration with Domencio Tedesco on Wednesday. The East Germans lost 4-1 to Shakhtar Donetsk at home in the Champions League on Tuesday. The previous weekend there had already been a painful 4-0 defeat against Eintracht Frankfurt in the league.
