FORMER Cardiff City boss Erol Bulut has returned to management after being unveiled as the new head coach of Turkish side Antalyaspor.

- GLEN WILLIAMS

The 50-year-old has signed a two-year deal with the Super Lig outfit, marking his first job since being sacked by Cardiff just over a year ago. Bulut replaces Emre Belozoglu, who left his post last week.

Bulut, who became Cardiff's first-ever Turkish manager when he took over in June 2023, guided the Bluebirds to a respectable 12th-place finish in his debut Championship campaign.

After protracted talks in the summer of 2024, he eventually penned a new two-year extension but things quickly unravelled.

A horrendous start to the following season saw Cardiff fail to win any of their first six games, collecting just a single point in a 1-1 draw with Swansea City.

A 3-0 defeat by Leeds United in September 2024 proved the final straw, with Bulut dismissed after just three months of his new deal.
