Jamaican born winger Leon Bailey will be taking directions from a new coach at his German Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen.

This comes after Leverkusen have sacked coach Heiko Herrlich after a year and a half, replacing him with Dutchman peter Bosz.

The 47-year-old Herrlich, who had taken over in 2017, left despite the team’s 3-1 win on Saturday against Hertha Berlin that lifted them to ninth place.

Bosz had briefly coached Borussia Dortmund last year after spells at several Dutch clubs, including Ajax Amsterdam, and a stint in Israel in 2016.

The 55-year-old Bosz led Ajax to the 2017 Europa league final, which they lost to Manchester United, before joining Dortmund.

But a bad run until December 2017 led to his departure that month.
