Ketsbaia resigns

April 14, 2009

Temuri Ketsbaia, the former Newcastle midfielder, has resigned from his job as coach of Cypriot side Anorthosis the same season he became the first man to lead a Cypriot team to the Champions’ League group stages.

The team are out of the title race in Cyprus this year and a club statement read: “He said the decision was taken in the best interests of the club.

“We asked him to reconsider as he was the main factor in our success - but he said it was final.”

When Ketsbaia qualified for the Champions League he talked of one day returning to Newcastle.

“As a player I had a dream to move to big clubs and I did that - as a manager that dream is no different,” he commented.

“If I get the chance to move to a bigger club in a bigger country then of course I would take it.

“It was a great opportunity for me to play for Newcastle and if the chance came up to manage them then I wouldn’t say no.”
