Werder Bremen have announced that manager Thomas Schaaf will leave the club with immediate effect.
The club have claimed that the 52-year-old has ended his 14-year reign by mutual consent following his side's 1-1 draw with Eintracht Frankfurt.
Sports director Thomas Eichin has stated that the club are looking for a "new beginning" that doesn't involve Schaaf, who secured the Bundesliga title with Bremen in 1994.
Schaaf is the longest-serving manager in Germany's top flight.
