Sheffield Wednesday have appointed former Germany assistant coach Danny Rohl as their new manager.
Munoz failed to win any of his 10 Championship games in charge and the Owls are seven points adrift of safety.
Rohl has previously worked as an assistant at RB Leipzig, Southampton and Bayern Munich.
This is the German’s first managerial role and makes him the youngest boss in the English Football League.
He has said he will bring four coaches from Germany and also look to appoint an experienced British coach to his staff.
His first game in charge of Wednesday will be at fellow strugglers Watford on Saturday, 21 October.
“When you are an assistant and work with some great coaches like Ralf Rangnick, Ralph Hassenhuttl and Hansi Flick you can take something from all of them and now it’s the time to be a manager and decide things on the pitch,” he said in a news conference.external-link
“I think all my experiences are helpful for my first step as a manager.
“I prepared the past 10 years for this situation and now the dream has come true. I have a clear philosophy and identity in my mind and that’s why I’m here now.”

Rohl’s predecessor Munoz took over in July after Darren Moore left the club by mutual consent despite leading them to promotion from League One last season.
The Spaniard won just two points from his 10 league matches in charge and was sacked before last Saturday’s 0-0 draw with Moore’s new side Huddersfield.
Wednesday are now looking to become the second Championship side in seven seasons, after Bolton in 2017-18, to avoid relegation having won three points or fewer in their opening 11 games.
Analysis – ‘One of the toughest jobs’

In terms of first impressions, Danny Rohl made a good one. He spoke with positivity about his first managerial role. He’s worked with some of the more well-known managers in world football and his background has prepared him to be a boss. He has the CV, speaks well and fans will warm to him.
That said, he’s picked one of the toughest jobs in England to launch a career.
Wednesday are a club in crisis. The chairman is unpopular with a section of fans thanks to high ticket prices and a self-inflicted sledgehammer blow to any momentum built up after promotion.
After 10 games and no wins in the Championship under Xisco, keeping this team in the second tier is going to be a heck of a challenge.
