Bundesliga soccer club VfL Wolfsburg has parted ways with coach Mark van Bommel with immediate effect.
The Lower Saxony announced this decision on Sunday around 24 hours after the 2-0 defeat against SC Freiburg.
It was the fourth Bundesliga bankruptcy in a row.
“The bottom line was that there were more dividing than connecting factors,” said managing director Jörg Schmadtke in a press release.
"The conviction to get out of the difficult sporting situation in this constellation and to bring about a U-turn as quickly as possible was missing."
Van Bommel himself, who has only been with VfL since the summer, was “surprised and disappointed” by the decision: “Because I am convinced that we would have managed to get back on the road to success together.
I wish the team that they quickly manage to turn things around again. ”The Wolfsburg-based company wants to provide information about the successor“ promptly ”.
