Advocaat quits as Serbia coach
Print Edition
MUCH-TRAVELLED Dutchman Dick Advocaat resigned as Serbia coach on Saturday, a day after a 1-3 Euro 2016 qualifying defeat at home to Denmark, the national football federation said.
“I regret that our joint work ends in this way,” Advocaat said in a Serbian Football Federation statement.
The 67-year-old was only appointed coach of the Balkan country in July.
Last season he coached Dutch side AZ Alkmaar, while his long career has seen him have stints with Netherlands, Belgium, South Korea and Russia.
His greatest successes have come at club level though, including winning the domestic treble in 1999 with Scottish side Rangers and the 2007 Russian Premier League with Zenit St Petersburg.
Serbia is bottom of Euro 2016 qualifying Group I with just one point.
Advocaat’s departure follows the sacking of Claudio Ranieri as Greece coach earlier in the day and the resignation of Georgia boss Temuri Ketsbaia.
