- Southampton will part ways with Ivan Juric at the end of the season after just one win under his management
- Danny Rohl has been identified as Juric’s replacement, with compensation talks pending
- Juric is managing his second unsuccessful club this season after a brief spell at Roma
Key Takeaways:
Southampton’s management has decided to part ways with Ivan Juric at the end of the season. The Croatian took over from Russell Martin in December, but since his arrival, the Saints have won only one match. Juric signed an 18-month contract but will not continue in charge next season in the Championship. According to The Sun, the club has already selected his replacement, current Sheffield Wednesday manager Danny Rohl.

The main obstacle remains the compensation Southampton would have to pay for the 35-year-old German specialist, with The Sun reporting that relations between the two clubs are not particularly good. Rohl is familiar with Southampton’s technical director Johannes Spors, with the pair having previously worked together at RB Leipzig.
Southampton is the second club Juric has led this season without success, following a short and unproductive spell at Roma earlier in the campaign. The Saints remain firmly at the bottom of the Premier League table, sitting 13 points from safety with 11 matches to play. While they still have a mathematical chance of survival, the club is widely expected to return to the Championship.
