The German club Bayer Leverkusen announced the dismissal of Dutch coach Erik Ten Hag just 60 days after his appointment, amid a deteriorating relationship with the management and disappointing results at the start of the season.

The German newspaper "Bild" revealed that Ten Hag's dismissal came after he was excluded from the deal to sign Spanish star Lucas Vazquez without his knowledge, raising doubts about his role within the club.

Despite his short tenure, Ten Hag will receive a substantial financial compensation of up to 6 million euros, amounting to 100,000 euros for each day worked.

During his term, the team failed to achieve any victory in the first two rounds of the Bundesliga, closing the chapter on one of the most expensive failed experiments in the club's history.
