RB Leipzig have parted company with Domenico Tedesco with immediate effect. This is the result of in-depth discussions following the 4-1 home defeat to Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday evening.

OLIVER MINTZLAFF, RB LEIPZIG CEO:
“The decision to part ways with Domenico Tedesco was a very difficult one for us. We had a very successful second half of last season under his tenure and we qualified for the Champions League. Under his leadership, we also won the DFB-Pokal, our first major title, and he was part of the most successful season in our young club’s history.

For this, Domenico and his coaching staff deserve our gratitude. Domenico is a fantastic coach who will have a lot of success in the future. However, after our mediocre start to the Bundesliga season with five points from five games, along with the recent defeats to Eintracht and Shakhtar, we believe that a change of management is the right course of action to turn things round quickly.

Our priority is RB Leipzig and we have goals that we want to achieve. We have therefore come to the conclusion that we need a change within the club. We regret that we are going our separate ways and we would like to thank Domenico for what he has achieved. We wish him nothing but the best for the future."

Domenico Tedesco took over as RB Leizpig head coach on 9th December 2021. Back then, the team were 11th in the league table, seven points adrift of the Champions League places. He got the side back on track and RB Leipzig were the best team in the second half of last season, collecting 36 points (42 goals scored, 15 conceded). That saw the club end the season in fourth to qualify once again for the Champions League.
