BUCHAREST, May 5 (Reuters) - Former Romania defender Mircea Rednic left his job as manager of Petrolul Ploiesti on Tuesday, as the domestic league's coaching carousel claimed another victim.
More than three dozen coaches have lost or quit their jobs since the start of the season in Romania's top flight.
Third-placed Petrolul said that Valentin Sinescu will take over until the end of the season.
Four-times Romanian champions Petrolul announced 53-year-old Rednic's departure "by mutual consent" in a statement a day after their 1-1 draw at bottom club Otelul Galati.
Much-travelled Rednic, who has coached numerous Romanian teams as well as clubs in Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Russia and Azerbaijan, blasted his players after the draw with Otelul, accusing them of a lack of professionalism.
