Scott Parker has been relieved of his duties as Club Brugge head coach after just 12 games in charge of the Belgian club. Club Brugge announced the departure of the former Fulham and Bournemouth manager in the wake of their 5-1 defeat to Benfica on Tuesday that saw them crash out of the Champions League. In a terse statement posted on their official website, they said: “Scott Parker is no longer head coach of Club Brugge. “Parker (42) was announced as the new head coach of Club Brugge on 31 December last year. The English ex-international previously worked for Fulham and Bournemouth and replaced Carl Hoefkens at the club. In 12 games, the Briton could only win two times.” Club Brugge currently sit fourth in the Belgian Pro League, the same position as when Parker took over, but 11 points behind third-placed Antwerp.
