Following on from some absolutely terrible performances, Leonardo Jardim was dismissed in a simple statement from the club earlier this afternoon. The clubs limited faith had been shaken recently with some of the playing performances and the style and the fans as well were not impressed with the quality of play. The statement simply read :-
"Olympiakos FC announces the termination of coach Leonardo Jardim's contract and thanks him for all his previous work. In tomorrows match against PAS Giannena, Antonis Nikopolidis will take charge of the team."
Current names being mentioned for the vacant position are Michel (ex-Sevilla) and Jose Luis Oltra (ex-Deportivo).
