    Wagner left the Terriers by mutual consent yesterday, with Huddersfield bottom of the Premier League.

    The German, 47, took over as Terriers boss in November 2015 and led them to promotion to the Premier League in 2016-17 via the Championship play-offs.

    Huddersfield were one of the favourites for relegation last season but Wagner kept them up with a 16th-place finish.

    But they've struggled this season, with just 11 points from 22 games, and are eight points adrift of safety.

    In a statement on the club's website, external, Mr Hoyle said during Wagner's tenure, the club had achieved "things on the football pitch that surpass anything in modern memory, and that have gone well beyond my wildest expectations as chairman and as a fan.

    "His achievements will rightly put him up there in Huddersfield Town history alongside great names like Herbert Chapman and Mick Buxton; legendary managers who changed the face of this club."

    Coach Mark Hudson will take charge of the next league game against champions Manchester City on Sunday.
