Bayer Leverkusen
September 2025
Bayer Leverkusen are set to appoint Kasper Hjulmand as head coach after sacking Erik ten Hag just two games into the season. Ange Postecoglou was briefly considered, but the club moved quickly to secure the out-of-work Danish tactician. Ten Hag, hired as Xabi Alonso’s replacement, failed to convince bosses in preseason or early matches, prompting swift action. Hjulmand’s experience managing Denmark appeals to Leverkusen, who want stability after a turbulent summer transition. Sky Deutschland reports the deal is close to completion.
