Trabzonspor have performed a U-turn and accepted Fatih Tekke's resignation as head coach, according to BBC News, just days after initially rejecting his request to walk away.

The Turkish giants had moved to reject what BBC News described as an "emotional" decision by Tekke to step down, seemingly hoping to keep him in charge. However, the club has now confirmed it will let him leave the post after all.

No further details have emerged regarding the circumstances behind Tekke's original resignation request or Trabzonspor's change of heart, and BBC News' report offers no indication of who might replace him or when a new appointment could be made.

The reversal leaves Trabzonspor needing to find a new head coach, with the club yet to outline its next steps publicly.
