Dumitrescu accepts PAOK offer

Members

Ilie Dumitrescu has caused a stir in Greece by resigning from his post at relegation-threatened Kallithea FC to become coach of PAOK FC.

Statement
The 37-year-old Romanian signed an 18-month deal with PAOK on Tuesday, just hours after handing in his notice at Kallithea, who sit second from bottom of the Alpha Ethniki. Kallithea immediately issued a statement, saying: "We want to denounce the unprofessional and indecent behaviour of Ilie Dumitrescu. He chose the most crucial period of the season to play around with the team's history and leave the club." Kallithea have also called on the Greek football authorities to act on this matter.
