This decision comes quickly after a historic defeat, which marks not only Dinamo’s worst loss ever but also sets a record for the most goals conceded by a single team in a Champions League match.
Jakirović, who took charge in the summer of 2023, initially had success with Dinamo, guiding them to both the Croatian league and cup titles in his first season. However, the heavy loss at the Allianz Arena seems to have determined his departure.
At one stage, it seemed as though Zagreb might stage a comeback, but they collapsed after gaining a decent foothold in the match.
This managerial change comes just as Celtic prepares to face Dinamo Zagreb on December 10th for the sixth matchday of the Champions League.
Celtic, on the other hand, are aiming to build on a strong start to their campaign, having secured a dominant victory over Slovan Bratislava in their opening match.
Goals from Liam Scales, Kyogo, Arne Engels, Daizen Maeda, and Adam Idah led Celtic to a comfortable 5-1 win, their largest-ever in the Champions League, putting them in a strong position ahead of matchday two.
