RB Leipzig has officially confirmed the appointment of Martín Demichelis as its new head coach, bringing an end to a period of managerial uncertainty at the Bundesliga club.
The Argentine former defender signed a contract that will keep him in charge until 2028, succeeding Ole Werner, who was dismissed just five days prior.
The decision marks a swift resolution to the club's search for a new leader.
Werner's departure came despite having exceeded sporting targets and outperforming his predecessor, Julian Nagelsmann, during his tenure.
The club had previously extended Werner's contract, making the sudden change a notable shift in strategy.
Demichelis, known for his defensive prowess during his playing career at Bayern Munich and Inter Milan, now takes on his first major managerial role at this level.
