Bijedic returns to Bursaspor

Bursaspor have appointed Nedzad Bijedic as their new coach following the departure of Ümit Kayihan.

High hopes
Bijedic, who has worked for the club on three previous occasions, has signed a six-month contract with an option for a further year. Bursaspor are 17th in the 18-team Turkish Superleague but Bijedic said: "I will do my utmost to save the club from relegation. I believe there is hope, otherwise I would not have accepted the offer."

Tough start
Ismail Ertekin, Nevzat Dinçbudak and Senol Karadeniz will assist the new coach, whose first match back at the club is away against Konyaspor this Saturday.
