COLOGNE, Germany — Relegation-threatened Cologne is parting ways with coach Steffen Baumgart. The Bundesliga club says the 51-year-old coach had jointly agreed with managing director Christian Keller and sporting director Thomas Kessler not to continue. Baumgart's last game in charge was a 2-0 loss at his ex-club Union Berlin on Wednesday. Cologne remained in the relegation zone after the defeat. The Court of Arbitration for Sport has also dismissed Cologne's appeal against a ruling concerning the signing of Jaka Čuber Potočnik from Slovenian club Olimpija Ljubljana. It confirmed Cologne's ban from registering new players for the next two transfer periods.
