By app published
BERLIN - Relegated Hertha Berlin and Friedhelm Funkel parted company on Tuesday.

"The two sides agreed not to extend the contract that ended this season," the club said in a statement.
Funkel's would have automatically got a new deal if the club had stayed up and although he offered to carry on in the second division Hertha decided to look for a new coach.
He took over from Lucien Favre late last year after Hertha's terrible start to the Bundesliga season.
