Coach Siewert has to leave Mainz, a relegation candidate. The penultimate team, which has not won eleven games, released the 41-year-old on Monday.
Mainz are already nine points behind the first non-relegation place, which Union Berlin occupies. There is a four point gap to the relegation place with 1. FC Köln. The 05ers have had great coaches like Jürgen Klopp and Thomas Tuchel in the past. But even Svensson, who saved Mainz from relegation in 2021 and then finished the season eighth in the table, did not become a permanent solution.
