Why Borussia Dortmund Manager Was Sacked

German side, Borussia Dortmund has terminated the appointment of their manager, Marco Rose barely a year after his confirmation.

The German was charged with the affairs of the Bundesliga team following the short-lived tenure of German manager Edin Terzić.

Although the 45-year-old led the Black and Yellows to a second-placed finish in the competitive league, the side failed to make an landslide impact in their European campaign- a development that spurred the Westfalenstadion Stadium management to show the former defender the door after a single season.

His sacking was confirmed in an official statement on the club’s website on Friday.

The statement reads:

”Bundesliga club Borussia Dortmund and coach Marco Rose are ending their collaboration. This is the result of an intensive season analysis on Thursday, in which Rose was joined by Hans-Joachim Watzke (CEO), Michael Zorc (Sports Director), Sebastian Kehl (Head of the Licensed Players Department) and Matthias Sammer (external consultant).

Hans-Joachim Watzke, Michael Zorc and Sebastian Kehl would like to thank Marco Rose for the work he has done, his great commitment and the trusting discussions and wish him all the best for his private and sporting future.

Rose’s assistant trainer Alexander Zickler as well as René Maric and athletic trainer Patrick Eibenberger will also no longer work for BVB in the future. BVB would also like to thank them for the work they have done and their commitment during the 2021/22 season.

Borussia Dortmund will hold talks about the composition of the future coaching team in the coming days.”

The club’s move has sparked questions on their rocky relationship with managers.

The North Rhine-Westphalia side has made headlines in recent times for a streak of coach sacking, with five coaches making appearances in the last six years.
