SK Beveren have parted ways with head coach Tim Bakens, ending his spell at the Belgian club after a disappointing start to the season. The promoted side took the decision after collecting just 10 points from a possible 33.
A short-lived reign
Bakens took charge of Beveren over the summer, guiding the newly promoted team into the new campaign. The Dutchman’s tenure, however, did not produce the results the club needed, and the board has now decided to go in a different direction.
A growing list in Belgium
The dismissal adds to a troubling trend in Belgian football this season. Bakens is the seventh coach in the Belgian top flight who will not see the campaign through, a sign of how quickly patience is running out in the country when results fail to arrive.
