Borussia Dortmund have parted company with manager Edin Terzic.
He reportedly asked the club “to terminate his contract with immediate effect”.
The German club said they agreed to Terzic’s request following “a joint discussion”.
“After the game at Wembley, I asked for a meeting with the club’s senior management team, because after nine years at BVB – including six on the coaching staff and two and a half as head coach – I feel that the club’s new era should begin with a new man on the touchline,” said Terzic.
“Everyone close to me knows that this has been a very difficult decision for me to take over the last few weeks, but after intensive discussions my fundamental feeling has not changed.
“I wish Borussia Dortmund the very best, thank you and see you soon.”
Dortmund chief executive Hans-Joachim Watzke lauded Terzic for his efforts while at the club.
“Edin Terzic has done an outstanding job in his time at BVB, and we all owe him a huge debt of gratitude,” he said.
“Edin and I will always remain friends.”
