VfL Wolfsburg 2025–26 football season
The 2025–26 season is the 81st season in VfL Wolfsburg‘s history and the club’s 29th consecutive season in the Bundesliga.
Background and pre-season
[edit]
Following the end of the 2023–24 season, manager Niko Kovač was dismissed and replaced by Ralph Hasenhüttl. Under Hasenhüttl, the club performed better than in the previous season, matching the previous season’s final points tally of 37 in early March, after 24 matches, with the club 7th in the table.[1] However, after Wolfsburg failed to win any of the following eight matches, Hasenhüttl was sacked and Daniel Bauer took over as interim manager for the final two matches.[2] Wolfsburg finished the 2024–25 season 11th with 43 points.[3]
On 12 June 2025, Paul Simonis was appointed as head coach on a two-year contract.[4]
