After Borussia Dortmund’s defeat at Wolfsburg, Sebastian Kehl has made it clear that Nuri Sahin will remain as head coach.
Borussia Dortmund suffered their fourth defeat in their last five games on Tuesday, crashing out of the DFB-Pokal after a 1-0 extra-time loss to Wolfsburg.
The defeat – Dortmund’s fifth in a row on the road – piles further pressure on head coach Nuri Sahin, with critics calling for his sacking.
However, Dortmund sporting director Sebastian Kehl insisted in a post-match interview that Sahin is not on the chopping block.
“We will stand together. We’ll get through this together,” Kehl said after the defeat.
Asked what Dortmund’s second-round exit means for the possibility of Sahin losing his job, Kehl replied:
“Nothing! This is not a situation that Borussia Dortmund haven’t overcome in the past.
Next up for Sahin and Dortmund is a tricky match against RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga this Saturday.
