But Cookie leaves his job with the club in eighth place in the Cypriot top-flight table with four wins and 13 points this season.

AEL Limassol released a statement which read: “The Board of Directors of AEL announces the mutual consent of the cooperation with the coach Chris Coleman.

“We sincerely thank Mr. Coleman for his contribution to our team during our partnership.

“His ethos and character are elements that have won the respect of all who make up our football department.

“We wish him every success in the next phase of his career, as well as health and happiness on a personal level.”

Coleman has also managed several times overseas with Real Sociedad in Spain, Larissa and Atromotis in Greece and Hebei China Fortune in China.

It is believed he has some future managerial options with interest from home and abroad.

But the Welshman is best remembered for leading Gareth Bale and co to the last four of the Euros in France eight years ago.

Speaking in March, Coleman declared that Bale was the best player he’d ever worked with – and Britain’s greatest-ever export abroad.

Coleman said: “(Bale) is the best player Wales have ever had.

“I also think he’s the most successful British player to ever go abroad, he won four Champions League titles, no one has ever done that from Britain.

 “You don’t have to coach players who are that good, you’ve just got to make sure they have got what they need.”
