Ståle Solbakken (52) has finished as Copenhagen coach.

The Danish club states this on its own website.

According to the press release, the reason is that the club has not delivered results at a satisfactory level in the Super League in 2020.

– Ståle is without comparison the most successful manager in club history with an impressive list of results. Everyone at the club owes Ståle a huge thank you for the enormous effort he has put into the club and the results he has created. However, we must affirm that the results in 2020 have not been satisfactory and we are now assuming the consequences of that, says the chairman of the board, Bo Rygaard, in the press release.

After four games this season, Copenhagen is in ninth place in the table. In all four games, the team won one, played a draw and lost two games.

Last season, the club finished in second place, nine points behind league champion Midtjylland.

Solbakken’s assistant coach Bård Wiggen also had his last day of work at the capital club.

The chairman of the FCK board of directors says it has been a difficult decision for the club to take on both professionally and emotionally, but that the club used to think well.

– We think this is the best for FCK in the situation we find ourselves in, says Rygaard.

Earlier this month, Solbakken responded to the criticism with a tirade to the Danish Eurosport:

Former player William Kvist and U19 coach Hjalte Bo Nørregaard take over, with the latter as head coach.

Ståle Solbakken has been with FC Copenhagen for three terms. He was first a player in the years 2000-2001, then had his first stint as a coach from 2006 to 2011, before returning in 2013.

He was introduced in November 2009 as the next coach of the Norwegian national team as of January 1, 2012, but never managed to start in that position after becoming FC Cologne coach in May 2011.
