The 65-year-old had already announced his resignation in September after the draw in the Champions League opener against AS Roma, but the club management did not accept his proposal. Now, the separation is by mutual agreement.
Fenerbahce Board Advocates for Foreign Coach
As several Turkish media outlets consistently report, Kartal submitted his resignation to President Aziz Yıldırım and board member Cihan Kamer following Tuesday's training. The official confirmation has already been made.
According to a report by Yağız Sabuncuoğlu, Dirk Kuyt will manage the team on an interim basis until a successor is found. According to the Turkish sports journalist, the majority of the Fenerbahce board is said to be advocating for a foreign solution.
