His first game in charge was a 1-1 draw with Panetolikos before he registered another stalemate with Levadiakos on September 28.

Makelele’s men then ran out 3-1 winners on Sunday away at Kallithea.

However, news broke on Monday that he had suddenly left in a shock twist.

Media reports suggested Makelele decided to walk away due to a difference in football philosophy with the club’s board.
