Edin Terzic has resigned as Borussia Dortmund coach, the Champions League runners-up said on Thursday in a surprise statement.
"The 41-year-old...asked Dortmund to terminate his contract with immediate effect, and after discussions, the club agreed to his request," the statement read.
The 41-year-old won the German Cup with Dortmund in 2021 as interim coach and then helped them finish runners-up in the Bundesliga in 2023 and reached the Champions League final in 2024 when in permanent charge.
Terzic, a boyhood Dortmund fan, said: "It is incredibly painful for me to say this to all Black and Yellow fans, but today I am parting company with Borussia Dortmund.
"After the game at Wembley, I asked for a meeting with the club’s senior management team, because after 10 years at BVB – including five on the coaching staff and two and a half as head coach – I feel that the club’s new era should begin with a new man on the touchline."
