David Wagner is leaving Huddersfield Town by mutual consent, with the club eight points adrift of Premier League safety.

Wagner, who made his name as Jurgen Klopp's assistant manager at Borussia Dortmund, was a revelation after taking over the Terriers and guided them to promotion in 2017.

The German defied all the odds to keep Huddersfield in the top flight last season but this year has struggled to keep up the pace and the club and Wagner mutually agreed to part ways after amassing just 11 points from 22 games this term.

Huddersfield are expected to make a swift appointment to replace the outgoing fan favourite.
