FELIX Magath is returning immediately to coach Wolfsburg, the club he led to a surprising Bundesliga title in 2009 but is now in danger of relegation.
Magath was fired from Schalke as coach and manager on Wednesday, then he quit as a board member to clear the way for a quick move to Wolfsburg. German media reported late on Thursday he was heading back to Wolfsburg, which has dropped to next to last in the Bundesliga.
Wolfsburg has fallen on hard times. It fired Steve McClaren, the first English coach in the Bundesliga, but the club won only one of five games under his assistant and successor Pierre Littbarski.
Wolfsburg, backed by the autogiant Volkswagen, was three points ahead of bottom-placed Borussia Moenchengladbach and plays in Stuttgart tomorrow in the Bundesliga. There are eight games left in the season.
