Less than 24 hours after the resounding slap from “Karabakh”, the coach of “Ludogorets” Georgi Dermendzhiev was fired by the 13-time consecutive champion of Bulgaria (4 of the titles are under his leadership), “24 Chasa” learned.
This happened a few hours ago and should be made official today.
Razgrad Stadium experienced embarrassing moments on Tuesday night when the visitors from Azerbaijan were beaten 7-2 after extra time in the second leg of the third preliminary round of the Champions League. In Baku, the Bulgarian representative won 2:1 last week.
It remains to be seen who will lead “Ludogorets” on Saturday at home against convincing leaders (4 wins from 4 games) in the First League “Levski”.
It is interesting that the “blues” are led by Stanislav Genchev, the former temporary coach and assistant in the staff of Razgrad.
Next Thursday (August 22), the “Eagles” host the Moldovan “Petroclub” in the first match of the playoff phase of the Europa League.
Thus, August 13 turned out to be fatal for Dermendzhiev during his third stay at the head of “Ludogorets”.
The native of Plovdiv, who is 69 years old, has the historic achievement of bringing the team from Razgrad into the Champions League for the first time.
This happened 10 years ago, and in 2016, Dermendzhiev repeated it.
