Mick McCarthy has been sacked as the manager of Cypriot side APOEL Nicosia, barely two months after taking charge of the club.
The 61-year-old, who completed a second spell in charge of Republic of Ireland prior to taking up the APOEL job, has seen his side struggle in recent matches.
A run of four consecutive defeats has seen the club – who finished third in the top division last season – drop to 10th this campaign, one place lower than when he took over.
That mini-slump has seen McCarthy subsequently relieved of his duties, along with his long-term assistant, Terry Connor.
“The company APOEL FOOTBALL (PUBLIC) LTD announces the end of its cooperation with coach Mick McCarthy,” the club said in a statement.
