Holstein Kiel have parted ways with head coach Tim Walter, the 2. Bundesliga club confirmed after falling back to the foot of the table. The decision follows another poor run of results that left the north German side anchored in last place.
Walter’s dismissal marks a dramatic step for the club as it looks to halt its slide and find a way back into the mix at the wrong end of the league. With the team struggling for points, the board has opted for a change in the dugout rather than waiting for a recovery.
Kniat Reported as Front-Runner
According to reports, Mitch Kniat is the frontrunner to take over the managerial role. The succession question is now the immediate priority for Kiel as they try to turn their season around.
