Bayer Leverkusen
Bayer Leverkusen
have named Red Bull Salzburg boss Roger Schmidt as their new coach for next season after they sacked ex-Liverpool captain Sami Hyypia earlier this month.
The 47-year-old Schmidt, who guided Salzburg
to this season's Austrian title, has signed a two-year contract with
Leverkusen, who are fourth in the Bundesliga and on course to qualify
for next season's Champions League.
Schmidt will finish the season at Salzburg
before taking over from caretaker coach Sacha Lewandowski, who will be
in charge for Bayer's remaining three Bundesliga matches and then return
to his previous role as head coach of Leverkusen's junior team.
