After Nuri Sahin was sacked as Borussia Dortmund coach earlier this week, U-19 coach Mike Tullberg has been put in charge on an interim basis for Saturday's Bundesliga clash with Werder

Borussia Dortmund have the quality and motivation to beat Werder Bremen in the Bundesliga on Saturday and end a four-game losing run across all competitions as they look to turn their season around, interim coach Mike Tullberg said on Friday.

Borussia Dortmund interim coach Mike Tullberg believes his involvement with the first team will be limited to the Bundesliga match at home to Werder Bremen on Saturday. The under-19 coach was put in temporary charge following the sacking of Nuri Sahin on Wednesday.

Youth coach Mike Tullberg will take charge against Werder Bremen on Saturday in the Bundesliga while Dortmund searches for Sahin's long-term replacement. Reports in Germany identified the favorite as ex-Bayern Munich and Monaco coach Niko Kovac but he told Austrian TV on Wednesday, “No one has spoken to me.”

Borussia Dortmund has fired coach Nuri Sahin, the German soccer club said on Wednesday after a shock loss to Bologna in the Champions League that stretched their losing run to four games across all competitions.
