Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl has departed the financially troubled Championship club by mutual agreement.
The 36-year-old's exit, occurring just under two weeks before the new season commences, marks the latest chapter in a tumultuous summer for the club.
Sheffield Wednesday is currently facing several financial embargoes, including delayed player payments in both May and June. The club's owner, Dejphon Chansiri, is actively seeking to sell the club.
Rohl's departure seemed imminent last month when he initially did not return for pre-season training, although he eventually resumed his duties in early July.
The German manager took charge at Hillsborough in October 2023, inheriting a team that had experienced its worst start to a season. Under his leadership, the team embarked on an impressive run of form, successfully avoiding relegation to League One.
In the 2024-25 season, Sheffield Wednesday finished 12th, but their hopes for a play-off position dwindled as they secured only one victory in their final nine matches.
