Decision announced He said: "I congratulate all of my players. I told them that I was proud of them but added one more thing - that I am not their coach any more.

'An honour' Hagi, who as a Galatasaray player between 1996 and 2000 won four league titles and the UEFA Cup, added: "It was an honour to take a role at Galatasaray.
