Hub Stevens took over Stuttgart in March 2014, left them in the Bundesliga and left.
He returned in November, once again kept the "Schwab" in the elite ranks of German football, but now the management has decided to part with him.
This was confirmed by the club from the city of Mercedes after the victory over Paderborn.
"This is a farewell to Hub Stevens, because his contract has expired and the Dutchman will not be on our bench next season," the announcement reads.
Sports director Robin Dut thanked the well-known expert in an unusual way.
"Hub Stevens is the coach of the century for another club, and he is the savior of the century for us," said Dutt.
Stevens was voted the best Schalke coach of the 1997th century in a fan vote, as he led the team from Gelsenkirchen to the UEFA Cup trophy in XNUMX.
Stuttgart said it had previously informed the 61-year-old Dutchman that he would not be renewing his contract, but the club refused to say who the new coach would be.
The German media write that the favorite is the former coach of Leipzig, Alexander Corniger.
