Ivan Kyuchukov has walked out on PFC Marek Dupnitza, marking the Bulgarian Premier League club's second coaching casualty of the season.
Heavy defeat
Kyuchukov, who only took the reins in October after the departure of Georgi Dimitrov, announced his intention to take a rest with immediate effect following Marek's 6-0 aggregate Bulgarian Cup semi-final defeat at the hands of PFC Litex Lovech.
'Not well accepted'
The coach, whose contract was due to expire at the end of the season, said: "I am disappointed that I was not accepted very well in my hometown. I am leaving the club." Assistant coach Lyubomir Traykov will take over in a caretaker capacity until the summer.
