Surprise Move: Relegated La Liga Coach Takes Helm at RB Leipzig

Mallorca's head coach, Martin Demichelis, is set to become the new manager of RB Leipzig, according to reports from "Marca."

This move by the former Argentine international comes as a surprise, especially since he extended his contract with the recently relegated La Liga side just two weeks ago, committing until the summer of 2028. However, sources indicate that Demichelis received an irresistible offer from the German club and will depart Mallorca independently, without his current coaching staff. At Leipzig, he is expected to replace Ole Werner, who is reportedly on the verge of being sacked.

Last season, the Balearic Islanders finished a disappointing 18th, leading to their relegation from Spain's top flight. Meanwhile, "the Bulls" secured a third-place finish in the Bundesliga, earning them a return to the Champions League.
