Turkish A National Team Head Coach and Turkish National Teams Technical Director Abdullah Avcı has announced his quit from his duties after making a mutual agreement with Turkish Football Federation.

Abdullah Avcı, who was appointed in 17 November 2011, said: ''I served Turkish National Teams with pride and honour for 21 months. Working together and farewells are normal in football just like winning and losing. I thought that my departure would be the best decision and shared my thoughts with Turkish Football Federation (TFF) president Yıldırım Demirören. I would be thankful to Mr. Demirören and all of his colleagues for their support.''

After Avcı's announcement, Turkish Football Federation has also published a release to express thanks to Avcı for his service until today.
