Former Germany Striker Sandro Wagner Gets His First Bundesliga Coaching Job at Augsburg

  • On May 28, 2025, former Germany striker Sandro Wagner was appointed head coach of Bundesliga club FC Augsburg, signing a three-year contract.
  • Wagner was named head coach shortly after Augsburg dismissed their previous manager Jess Thorup along with their sporting director Marinko Jurendi, following a disappointing finish to the season marked by four consecutive defeats.
  • At 37 years old, Wagner previously coached Unterhaching in the fourth division, achieving promotion before joining the German national under-20 team and assisting senior coach Julian Nagelsmann.
  • Augsburg ended the Bundesliga season in 12th place out of 18 teams and had been vying for a spot in European competition until a late-season decline undermined their chances.
  • This managerial change signals Augsburg’s desire for developmental progress through Wagner’s high-pressing, attacking philosophy and fresh tactical approach.
