Der 1. FC Köln hat sich von Cheftrainer Lukas Kwasniok getrennt. Die Entscheidung fiel nach dem 3:3-Unentschieden im Derby gegen Borussia Mönchengladbach. Sportchef Thomas Kessler hatte zunächst angekündigt, die Trainerfrage ergebnisoffen zu prüfen, doch die Zeichen standen bereits auf Trennung. Kwasnioks bisheriger Assistenztrainer René Wagner, der bereits unter Steffen Baumgart in Köln tätig war, übernimmt die Position des Cheftrainers. Die offizielle Bekanntgabe der Beurlaubung Kwasnioks erfolgte am Sonntagabend, nachdem interne Gespräche und Beratungen stattgefunden hatten. Wagner gilt als Taktik-Spezialist und war im vorigen Sommer zu Kwasniok gestoßen.
