Milutin 'Micho' Sredojevic has terminated his contract as coach of Uganda's national team over the issue of unpaid wages. His future as coach of The Cranes had been the source of much speculation all week which led to him meeting Uganda FA (Fufa) officials on Monday. On Saturday, Micho confirmed to BBC Sport that he was leaving his position.
"It is a notice of termination due to non payment of salaries," the Serbian stated.
The 47 year old had been in his position as Uganda coach since his appointment in May 2013.
During his tenure, he famously guided The Cranes to their first Africa Cup of Nations finals in 39 years when they qualified for Gabon 2017. Uganda's FA issued a statement on Saturday saying they "will forever keep those memories with them."
They thanked the coach for his services and wished him well for the future.
