The German club, Borussia Dortmund, have sacked head coach Thomas Tuchel amid dressing room row with players.
Dortmund confirmed the exit of the coach on their website.
Tuchel took over as coach after the exit of Jurgen Klopp who left to join Liverpool FC in England.
Tuchel took Dortmund to second spot in the German Bundesliga in his first year and to third position in the just ended season behind winners Bayern Munich, and RB Leipzig.
The coach guided Dortmund to win the DFB-Pokal on Saturday, although it was overshadowed by a hostile player reaction to Nuri Sahin’s absence from the matchday squad.
“We would like to thank Thomas Tuchel and his coaching staff for the sporting success at BVB, which reached a deserved climax last Saturday at the DFB Pokal final in Berlin against Eintracht Frankfurt. We wish Thomas Tuchel only the very best in his professional future,” Dortmund said.
