BUNDES - Florian Kohfeldt takes charge of Wolfsburg as manager

Published on: 26 October 2021

Former Werder Bremen coach Florian Kohfeldt was hired head coach of Bundesliga club Wolfsburg on Tuesday, replacing Mark van Bommel, who was fired last weekend.

Kohfeldt was fired by Werder Bremen in May after the club was relegated from the Bundesliga, but the 39-year-old has now signed a two-year contract with Wolfsburg.

"I didn't have to think twice about accepting this challenge," Kohfeldt said in a Wolfsburg statement.

"It is an exciting task that I am looking forward to."

He takes over for Van Bommel, who was fired on Sunday after only five months in command after four consecutive league losses.

On Saturday, Kohfeldt will make his coaching debut for Bayer Leverkusen, who are now fourth in the Bundesliga, five points behind league leaders Bayern Munich.
