Turkish manager Abdullah Avci replaced Croatian coach Nenad Bjelica as the head coach of Trabzonspor, the Turkish club announced Thursday.

Trabzonspor announced an agreement with Avci with a unanimous decision by the board of directors after Bjelica's contract with the club was mutually terminated.

Avci has begun his second era at the helm of Trabzon seven months after leaving in March.

The 60-year-old coach won the 2022 Turkish Super Lig title and two Turkish Super Cups during his first stint with the Black Sea Storms.
