Christian Gourcuff Part Ways With Algeria

Experienced French trainer Christian Gourcuff has mutually ended his association with the Desert Foxes amidst media pressure.

The 60 year old much travelled tactician joined the Desert Foxes right after the 2014 FIFA and has since transformed the North Africans into one of the revered nations on the continent.

The former France international led Algeria to an unbeaten run in the 2015 AFCON qualification journey before leaving the tourney at the quarter final stages.

The ex Lorient Boss then confirmed his managerial class with another strong performance in the ongoing 2017 AFCON qualifiers that has seen the rampant Foxes pocketing 10 points from the opening four games the 10-4 aggregate win over Ethiopia.

It is unclear as to why the ace trainer parted ways with his North African paymasters but media unrest and a blind on home based talented has been heard from within the corridors of the Foxes.

The Hanvee born respected tactician could however remain in the continent with interests from a number of rivals on the continent.

Boye"s Relegation Fears Compounded

Ghanaian defender John Boye has seen his relegation fears at the end of the season compounded by a slim 1-0 defeat at Mersin on Friday night.

The robust centre back lasted the full 90 minutes but could not halt the poor run of results for Sivaspor as they extended their downward spiral down the log.

Brazilian attacker Willington Soares pocketed a second half strike to push Sivas further down the log with just 18 points from the opening 23 matches in the super league.

Sivas has now suffered six defeats in the last ten matches and has managed a paltry three wins in the whole season.

Boye has since managed an impressive 4 goals in his truncated 16 matches for the relegation struggling Sivaspor despite playing as a centre back.

The 28 year old Black Stars centre back incidentally occupies the second slot on the scoring chart for the basement club in the Turkish super League with four goals, one behind Aatif Chahechouhe.

Sivaspor has endured a torrid start to the 2015/16 season that has seen them lose 12 of the opening 24 matches and five points adrift of safety.
