STUTTGART, Germany (AP) Stuttgart has fired coach Bruno Labbadia after four straight losses to start the Bundesliga season.
The club did not immediately name a successor Monday.
The move came a day after Stuttgart
lost 2-1 in Augsburg to remain bottom of the standings without a point
after three matches of the Bundesliga season. Stuttgart also lost the
away leg of the Europa League qualifier to Rijeka of Croatia.
Labbadia took over Stuttgart in
December 2010 and managed to guide the club away from the relegation
zone. Stuttgart also reached the final of the German Cup last season,
losing 3-2 to Bayern Munich.
Reaching the final was enough for
Stuttgart to seal a place in qualifying for the Europa League as Bayern
had also won the Bundesliga title.
