Former City manager fails to agree terms with Larissa
Former Coventry City manager Chris Coleman, who was heavily tipped to become manager of struggling Greek Super League side Larissa, has failed to land the job after it was given to Jorn Andersen.
Coleman had been in talks with the Thessaly based club but reportedly failed to agree terms as he is still receiving a monthly salary from Coventry City until his contract expiries so they interviewed the former Bundesliga side Mainz manager Andersen instead.
Andersen has managed in Greece before when he was in charge of Skoda Xanthi during the 2007-08 season.
He has been offered a one and a half year contract with Larissa after he previously led Mainz to promotion to the Bundesliga, but was sacked by the German club just before the German 2009/10 season started.
Larissa are currently bottom of the Greek top division with just 11 points from 14 games
