The Austrian Ralph Hasenhüttl is the new coach of the Bundesliga soccer club VfL Wolfsburg.

The club confirmed this after several media outlets had previously reported on the personnel.

Wolfsburg separated from its previous coach Niko Kovač on Sunday after a long sporting crisis.

Hasenhüttl has already worked for RB Leipzig and FC Ingolstadt in the Bundesliga and most recently coached FC Southampton in the English Premier League from 2018 to 2022.

He is scheduled to conduct his first training session with the Wolves on Tuesday.

In the Bundesliga, Wolfsburg will only face Werder Bremen after the international break on March 30th.
