In a significant development, Borussia Dortmund has confirmed the departure of head coach Edin Terzic. This decision marks the end of Terzic’s tenure with the Bundesliga giants, reflecting a broader restructuring effort at the club aimed at revitalizing their approach and performance in both domestic and European competitions.
Terzic’s Tenure at Dortmund
Edin Terzic initially took over as an interim head coach in December 2020 after Lucien Favre’s departure. His impact was immediate, leading the team to victory in the DFB-Pokal in May 2021.

Recent Form
Dortmund’s recent form has been a mixed bag:
- Secured a 5-1 victory over FC Augsburg in the Bundesliga.
- Suffered a 3-0 defeat to FSV Mainz 05.
- Displayed resilience in the UEFA Champions League by defeating Paris Saint Germain 1-0 in both legs of the quarter-finals but ultimately fell to Real Madrid 2-0 in the finals.
Looking Ahead
The departure of Edin Terzic signals a new chapter for Borussia Dortmund. The club is expected to begin the search for a new head coach who can build on the current squad’s strengths and bring a fresh perspective to the team’s strategy and performance. With a blend of experienced players and promising young talents, Dortmund aims to reclaim its status as a dominant force in both the Bundesliga and European football.
As the club moves forward, fans and analysts alike will be keenly watching to see how the new leadership can harness the potential within the squad and steer the team towards greater success in the upcoming seasons.
