Renegades finished at the bottom of the BBL table on both seasons with Klinger at the helm after having won the eighth edition of the tournament.

"Maxy's dedication to the role, his composure and broader role as an ambassador for the Renegades has been exemplary," Renegades General Manager David Lever said.

"Despite injuries and unavailability of key players, limited preparation time in his first season and an extended period on the road in his second season, Maxy never looked for excuses and confronted each challenge with the same commitment, character and class that made him such an excellent player for so long.

"We thank Michael for his service and outstanding leadership and wish him and his family all the best for their new opportunity," he added.
