🚨 Only arrived this season! Reports: second-tier club sacks coach
With five matchdays to go, Fortuna Düsseldorf are in serious trouble. After their fourth straight defeat, Fortuna are right back in the middle of the relegation battle. For those in charge, that was reason enough to act. As both 'Bild' and 'kicker' report independently, Markus Anfang was dismissed with immediate effect this Sunday.
The Cologne native had only taken over from Daniel Thioune in October after a nightmare start to the season. But now it is also over for the 51-year-old. According to the reports, a successor has already been lined up.
Fans of a well-crafted pun will especially enjoy this one. According to those reports, Anfang is to be followed by Ende. The man in question is Alexander Ende. The 46-year-old was only dismissed by Preußen Münster four weeks ago after picking up just 26 points from 26 matches with the Eagles. He is now supposed to steer Fortuna away from relegation.
