Bosz leaves Ajax for Dortmund
'Peter Bosz is the new BVB Head Coach. Contract will last until 2019. Further info in a press conference this afternoon,' Dortmund said on their English-language Twitter account.
Bosz, 53, arrives from Ajax after leading the Dutch side to the final of the Europa League, where they lost 2-0 to Manchester United last month.
Following winners Tuchel and Klopp
Briefly a player in Germany with Hansa Rostock in the 1990s, he replaces Thomas Tuchel, who was sacked despite Dortmund winning the German Cup -- their first major silverware in five years -- and finishing third in the Bundesliga in the season just finished. Prior to him, the now-Liverpool manager Jürgen Klopp had brought two league titles, a German cup and a super cup to the club.
Switzerland's Lucien Favre, formerly in charge at Borussia Moenchengladbach, had been linked with a return to the German game with Dortmund but his current side Nice refused to let him go.
