Former Middlesbrough and England coach Steve McClaren has left
Dutch champions FC Twente to become the new boss of German side
Wolfsburg.
McClaren has been considering his options, after leading FC
Twente to the Dutch title at the weekend.
He is known to have attracted interest from Britain - but has
rebuffed the chance to return home in favour of a new experience in
Germany.
Wolfsburg won the Bundesliga title in 2009 - but things did
not go so well for them last season and they sacked Armin Veh
shortly after the winter break.
Lorenz-Gunther Kostner was in caretaker control but he could
only guide them to eighth place.
McClaren has now agreed a three-year deal to take control of
the club.
