Florian Kohfeldt is the new coach at Bundesliga soccer club VfL Wolfsburg.
The 39-year-old will receive a contract with Lower Saxony until 2023, as VfL announced on Tuesday.

Kohfeldt was released from his duties at Werder in May of this year despite a contract until the summer of 2023.
Borussia Dortmund's technical director Edin Terzic was also recently considered a candidate.
After separating from van Bommel, Michael Frontzeck was promoted to interim coach at the Champions League participant.
VfL's next duel is on Saturday (3:30 p.m. / Sky) in the Bundesliga at Bayer Leverkusen.
