Ole Werner ‘rejects’ Al-Ahli job | OneFootball

Bild reports that Ole Werner has rejected an approach from Al-Ahli to become head coach.

He was seen as one of the leading options to replace Newcastle United-bound Matthias Jaissle, and the club will now turn to other candidates, the report added.

Werner, 38, was relieved of his duties at RB Leipzig despite guiding the club back to Champions League football in his debut season.

With Al-Ahli seeking a swift appointment, he opted on Tuesday against taking what would have been his first role outside Germany.

Jaissle is expected to be confirmed as Newcastle United head coach after being spotted at their training camp. The German won back-to-back Asian Champions League titles with the Saudi club.
