Istanbul: Brazilian football legend Roberto Carlos on Sunday resigned as coach of Turkish top flight side Sivasspor after a succession of poor results, reports said.
The board met immediately after Saturday’s 0-2 defeat to Istanbul’s Basaksehir and then with Carlos himself on Sunday morning where it was mutually agreed he should quit, Turkish sports daily Fanatik said.
He is expected to leave Sivas, a major city in central Turkey, by Monday evening, online news site Radikal added. A search for a new manager is to begin immediately.
