Avram Grant leaves Partizan Belgrade

Avram Grant has left his post at Partizan Belgrade after just five months in charge.

The 57-year-old led the Serbian club to their fifth straight title this season but has chosen to activate a release clause in his contract.

The Israeli, who was sacked by West Ham United hours after they were relegated last season, put pen to paper on an 18-month deal back in January.

According to the Daily Mail, the Partizan fans were disgruntled at losing to bitter rivals Red Star Belgrade three times during Grant's short tenure.
