Top football manager resigns from Russian club over Ukraine invasion

Earlier, Sports Brief had reported how Lokomotiv Moscow have been dealt a huge blow following a decision by their manager, Markus Gisdol, to resign over Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

The German tactician has spent the better part of his coaching career with clubs in his homeland.

However, he landed a managerial role with Lokomotiv Moscow back in October 2021, earning him a move out of his country.

According to Gisdol, his decision to turn his back on Lokomotiv Moscow was influenced by Russia's decision to wage a war on Ukraine.
