According to consistent media reports, Gerardo Seoane is no longer a coach at Bayer Leverkusen. Accordingly, the Bundesliga club should announce the decision on Thursday. The step is the result of the bad start to the season in the Bundesliga and premier class.
A successor is not yet known – according to ESPN and the Spanish newspaper Marca, the Spanish world and European champion Xabi Alonso is very popular. Leverkusen lost 1-0 to Bruges in the Champions League. The start of the season in the Bundesliga had already gone badly before that: the Werkself only won one of eight games there. In addition, the club was knocked out of the DFB Cup by third division club SV Elversberg.
Seoane switched from Young Boys Bern to Bayer-Kreuz in the summer of 2021 and qualified for the Champions League with the team in his debut season.
