Bayer Leverkusen poised to part ways with Hjulmand

For a long time, it has been reported that Kasper Hjulmand is practically certain to leave Bayer Leverkusen this summer.

Now, Bild reports that Die Werkself have made a final decision on the Danish coach’s future.

The German tabloid claims that Hjulmand’s time at the club will be over at the end of the season, and that his final game in charge will be Saturday’s match against Hamburger SV.

Even though it is still mathematically possible for Leverkusen to qualify for the Champions League, Die Werkself almost certainly threw away their chance of reaching Europe’s premier club competition on Saturday with a 3-1 loss to VfB Stuttgart.

With just one game left to play, Leverkusen sit sixth, three points behind both Hoffenheim and VfB Stuttgart in fifth and fourth place respectively.
