German-born coach Ernst Middendorp has left struggling Swallows FC and returned to his homeland Germany here he will coach SV Meppen.
The 64-year-old Middendorp, who only joined the Dube Birds last December, has signed a contract to coach the German third tier side until the end of the season.
“We are convinced that Ernst Middendorp can help us with his experience in our current situation. I have always been in contact with Middendorp,” Meppen sporting director Heiner Beckmann said.
Middendorp, who is expected to land in his native Germany on Wednesday, left Swallows on 14th position on the Premiership standings with only eight matches before the end of the season.
