Besiktas fire Dutch head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst after poor results
Turkish Super Lig club Besiktas announced Saturday that they separated ways with Dutch head coach Giovanni van Bronckhorst after poor results.
In addition to a below-par run in the Super Lig, the Black Eagles also lost to Israeli Maccabi Tel Aviv 3-1 in the league phase matchday 5 game of UEFA Europa League on Thursday.
The 49-year-old had signed a two-year contract with the Black Eagles, along with a one-year option to extend, in June.
He previously led Feyenoord to the 2015-16 Eredivisie (Dutch top-tier league) title.
Van Bronckhorst then took the helm at the Rangers in Scotland in 2021, only to leave in November 2022 after winning the 2021-22 Scottish Cup.
Besiktas have been longing for Turkish Super Lig league title since the 2020-21 season.
