HUDDERSFIELD TOWN have parted ways with head coach André Breitenreiter by mutual consent.
The Terriers were relegated from the Championship last weekend following a 2-0 defeat to Ipswich town.
Huddersfield had spent a decade in the top two divisions of English football.
But following the club’s drop down to League One, officials mutually decided with Breitenreiter that it was time for a change.
Discussing Breitenreiter’s departure, Huddersfield owner and chairman Kevin Nagle said: “I have enjoyed the opportunity to work with André over the past three months and he departs with our best wishes, while contingencies in place have seen our recruitment process for a new Head Coach advance.
“Supporters should rest assured that all decisions made are with the best intentions of our Club in mind, and we look forward to moving on in a positive manner with a new Head Coach dedicated to our ideals and vision, with our plans for pre-season and ambitions for the year ahead unmoved.”
