Peter Pacult has stood down from German third division leaders 1. FC Dynamo Dresden to return to his homeland as coach of SK Rapid Wien.

Zellhofer out
The 46-year-old has signed a contract until 2008 and replaces Georg Zellhofer who was sacked last week with Rapid having tallied just seven points from as many opening games. Rapid chairman Rudolf Edlinger praised Dresden for releasing Pacult, a former TSV 1860 München coach. As a player, he enjoyed a two-season stay at Rapid which included an Austrian Cup success and an appearance in the 1985 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup final loss to Everton FC.
