BERLIN - Schalke announced on Sunday that they have sacked head coach David Wagner after going 18 league games without a win, which includes the worst to a start to a season in Bundesliga history.

Having kicked off 2020-21 with a humiliating 8-0 loss at Bayern Munich last weekend, Schalke's record of 11 goals conceded with one scored in two defeats is the worst start to a season in the league's history. Wagner seemed resigned to his fate after Saturday's defeat, saying:"I am the main person responsible, as a coach you need results and we aren't getting them."

Having won promotion to the Premier League in 2017-18 with Huddersfield, Wagner returned to Germany with an enhanced reputation when he was unveiled as head coach of Gelsenkirchen-based Schalke in May 2019.
