Rivals in the Celtic Champions League fire their manager following a terrible outcome.
In December, Brendan Rodgers will face a new opponent after Sergej Jakirovic was fired by Dinamo Zagreb.
Sergej Jakirovic was fired as manager of Dinamo Zagreb following their disastrous Champions League performance. Bayern Munich completely destroyed Celtic’s European rivals on Tuesday night, winning 9-2 in Germany. For the champions of Croatia, who will play the Celtics on December 10, it was a devastating first-day outcome. And despite leading the Croats to a league and cup double the previous season, manager Jakirovic has paid a price with his job.
After six games, Zagreb is presently one point behind leaders Hajduk Split and Rijeka in the SuperSport HNL. But Jakirovic was fired after just over a year in leadership, and later this year, Brendan Rodgers will face a new opponent at Maksimir Stadium.
A statement from the club verified this: “GNK Dinamo would like to notify the public that a mutual termination of the contract has been agreed upon with Sergej Jakirovic, the former coach of the Blues. Sandro Perković, a former member of the professional staff, will lead the first team until a new long-term coaching solution is decided.
