The decision follows an eight-match winless run that left the 3. Liga side three points above the relegation places.

Overview

  • The club also parted ways with assistant coach Dimitrios Moutas.
  • Sporting director Jürgen Luginger will lead training until further notice with a focus on stabilizing the team before the winter break.
  • Luginger previously managed Saarbrücken from 2010 to 2013 and has served as sporting director since 2020.
  • Saarbrücken is winless in eight league matches, sits 12th, and has not won in more than two months.
  • Schwartz, appointed in late April, leaves after a short tenure that included a promotion playoff defeat to Eintracht Braunschweig.
