NEIL LENNON has been sacked by Omonia Nicosia.
The former Celtic and Hibernian boss was in charge for just seven months before being released as boss.
The Cyprian side confirmed that Lennon's dismissal was decided due to "ongoing competitive instability and the significant losses of points in the championship".
Omonia were defeated today by Nea Salamis in the Cyprian first division.
They narrowly lost out to Manchester United in the Europa League last week at Old Trafford as Scott McTominay split the teams late on following a spirited display.
A club statement explained: "We inform you that we have agreed with Mr Neil Lennon to stop our collaboration.
"Mr Lennon took over the technical leadership of our team last March, at a difficult time and managed to lead us to winning the cup and then to the historic qualification against KAA GENT and our entry into the UEFA Europa League groups, where we came close to historic results against Real Sociedad and Manchester United.
"Unfortunately, the ongoing competitive instability and the significant losses of points in the championship, are the main reasons that made us decide to end our partnership.
"Mr Lennon has written his name in the history of Omonia and deserves the respect and recognition of all of us. Our paths separate, but the memories of our collaboration will unite us forever.
"We sincerely thank Mr Lennon for his contribution and wish him every success in his future career."
