Greek powerhouse Panathinaikos have sacked their head coach Henk ten Cate after a run of poor results.
Club chairman Nicolas Pateras has announced that ten Cate has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect. Panathinaikos were knocked out of the Champions League in the preliminary stage and have also stuttered in the Greek first division at times.
But it is surprisingly that the former Barcelona number two has been sacked as Pana are just one point off the pace in the league and are on the brink of qualification to the knockout stage of the Europa League.
