After leading the 18-time Kenyan champions to another title, the Cypriot-Turkish tactician has left his post.

Hassan Oktay has officially resigned as Gor Mahia head coach.

The Cypriot-Turkish tactician has asked the club to relieve him from his duties after asking for five days of compassionate leave last week.

Oktay was appointed Gor Mahia's head coach in December 2018 to succeed Dylan Kerr, who had also resigned from his position after only one season.

â€œKindly accept my resignation as Gor Mahia FC head coach effective today [August 6], the sixth day of August 2019. As you are aware, the decision has been forced on me by the personal challenges I am facing here in Europe," Oktay was quoted as saying by the club's website.

"I wish to thank you and the entire club, including the fans for the opportunity you accorded me to manage this great club. I also wish you guys all the best in your forthcoming assignments."

Meanwhile, the club has accepted his resignation and thanked him for his services.

"The club has accepted Oktayâ€™s wish to terminate his contract and thanks to him for his services. The club also prays for Oktayâ€™s situation to get better," the club confirmed.
