Former Belgium boss Tedesco took over from Jose Mourinho in September but failed to see out the season.

A 3-0 loss at Galatasaray on Sunday all but ended Fenerbahce’s hopes of a first Super Lig title since 2014, leaving them seven points behind their city rivals with three matches left this season.

The bad-tempered match saw Fenerbahce midfielder Talisca miss a first-half penalty with the game goalless, while goalkeeper Ederson was sent off after the break.

Fenerbahce said in a statement that sporting director Devin Ozek and football coordinator Berke Celebi had also been dismissed, with assistant coach Zeki Murat Gole taking over from Tedesco until the end of the season.
