Erik ten Hag has been ruled out of the race to be the next Borussia Dortmund boss -after initially being the front-runner.
Sahin was sacked after just seven months in charge following Dortmund's 2-1 Champions League defeat at Bologna on Tuesday night.
Despite reaching last season's Champions League final, Dortmund have collapsed this campaign and they sit 10th in the Bundesliga table.
Ten Hag was slated for a quick return to management with Dortmund just three months after being sacked by Manchester United, but Mail Sport understands he is not in contention.
