1. FC Kaiserslautern have parted ways with coach Dimitrios Grammozis.

The Lauterers lost five of six second division games under the Greek. Assistant coach Sven Piepenbrock was also released, it was said. The club did not initially announce who would take over the position. With only 21 points, the FCK is level on points with second-to-last Hansa Rostock in the second division and has to fear falling into the third division.
