Monchengladbach sacks Seoane after goalless start
Borussia Monchengladbach sacked coach Gerardo Seoane after failing to register a win or score a goal in its first three games of the Bundesliga season.
Seoane joined Gladbach in 2023 after leaving Bayer Leverkusen the previous year, overseeing finishes of 14th in 2023-2024 and 10th in 2024-2025.
A slow start to the new campaign has cost him his job, with Gladbach sitting 16th in the table with one point from its first three matches.
Gladbach played out a goalless draw with newly promoted Hamburger SV on matchday one, then lost 1-0 at Stuttgart and 4-0 at home to Werder Bremen.
It is one of just four clubs in Europe's top five leagues that have not scored this campaign, alongside Aston Villa, HSV and Genoa.
"After a comprehensive review of our start to the season, we've come to the conclusion that we need to make a change in the position of head coach," said managing director Roland Virkus.
"After 10 Bundesliga matches without a win, stretching across two seasons, we've lost the belief that a turnaround is possible with Gerardo."
Gladbach added that under-23 coach Eugen Polanski will take over on an interim basis "until further notice", with difficult fixtures against Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt to come before the end of September.
