Duisburg have sacked former Germany World Cup star Jurgen Kohler as manager.
MSV are second from bottom in Die Bundesliga and the 1-1 draw at Wolfsburg over the weekend has turned out to be Kohler's final game in charge.
With only six games remaining in the domestic season, the timing of the decision may be criticised but the Duisburg officials obviously feel a change is required to avoid relegation.
Kohler, who was a resilient defender during his playing career, only took over in December when replacing Norbert Meier.
