LONDON: Leonid Slutskiy has stepped down as head coach of the national team, the Russian Football Union (RFU) said on Thursday. Slutskiy announced he would not extend his contract after Russia were knocked out of the European Championship last week, finishing bottom of Group B with one point from three games. “The RFU would like to thank Leonid Slutskiy, who helped Russia to qualify for the 2016 European Championships, for his professionalism and we wish him all the success in his coaching career,” the RFU said in a statement on its website (www.rfs.ru). The 45-year-old, who is also CSKA Moscow coach, had been in charge of the national team since August 2015.
