Holstein Kiel dismiss head coach Tim Walter

Bundesliga 2 side Holstein Kiel have dismissed head coach Tim Walter alongside assistant coaches Julian Hübner and Michael Wimmer. The decision follows a poor run of form leaving the club bottom of the table with eight points from 11 matches, culminating in a 2-1 home loss to Arminia Bielefeld.

Walter was reappointed in February 2026 to replace Marcel Rapp and guided the club to survival last season. Managing director for sport Olaf Rebbe confirmed the dismissals, while the club has yet to announce who will take charge ahead of their next match against Wolfsburg.
