Sami Hyypiä has been relieved of his duties as the coach of Bayer Leverkusen following a string of disappointing results, including a recent defeat against Hamburg. The decision to part ways with the Finnish coach comes after Leverkusen suffered their sixth defeat in the last nine matches of the Bundesliga.
To fill the vacancy left by Hyypiä, Leverkusen’s leadership has appointed Sasha Lewandowski as the interim coach until the end of the season. However, there are rumors circulating that former Werder Bremen coach Thomas Schaaf could be considered for the position at the conclusion of the season.
The club announced the decision via their official Twitter account, confirming Hyypiä’s departure and Lewandowski’s temporary appointment as the new head coach.
