Johansson has not succeeded in piloting TPS back into the Veikkausliiga.
Football TPS, which plays in the first team, has been dismissed by the head coach Jonatan Johansson. Johansson had a comprehensive contract for the current season.
There are two rounds left in the upper league series, and TPS is second in the series, four points behind league leader KTP. The winner of the first place advances directly to the Veikkausliiga, and one of the teams ranked 2–4 can advance through the qualifiers.
Johansson’s successor has not yet been named.
“TPS is going to chase league promotion under the leadership of a new head coach. TPS will announce its new head coach tomorrow, Monday,” the club’s press release states.
Johansson was appointed head coach of TPS in July 2020. The team finished 11th in the Veikkausliiga and fell to 1st through the qualifiers. Last year, under Johansson’s leadership, TPS finished third in Ykkösen.
“TPS thanks Jonatan Johansson for the time together and wishes him continued happiness”, the announcement states.
