Spaniard leaves club after just six weeks
Juande Ramos has been sacked as manager of CSKA Moscow after just six weeks with the Russian club.
The former Real Madrid and Tottenham boss was relieved of his duties on Monday following the 3-1 defeat at the hands of Russian Premier League rivals FK Moscow at the weekend, having led the team to just four domestic wins in his nine games in charge.
CSKA were beaten by Manchester United in the UEFA Champions League last week and are now 10 points off top-of-the-table club Rubin Kazan in the Russian league.
A statement on the club's
official website said: "As of today the contract of Juande Ramos was terminated by mutual consent."
Ramos had only been in the job a short time after he replaced Brazilian manager Zico, who was fired in September following a string of poor results.
Former FK Moscow and Krylya Sovietov Samara coach Leonid Slutsky has taken over from the 54-year-old Spaniard until the end of the season.
The Russian outfit travel to Old Trafford next Tuesday as they look to get their European campaign back on track.
