Fenerbahçe have officially ended their association with assistant coach Dirk Kuyt, the 46-year-old Dutchman who also took charge of the team on an interim basis.

Kuyt had joined the staff as an assistant before stepping up temporarily. He also wore the Fenerbahçe shirt as a player, and the club thanked him for his work in its statement.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, the split followed the arrival of Emre Belözoğlu on the bench. In a farewell message, Kuyt said it was a pause rather than a goodbye and that he fully respected the decision.
