Trabzonspor have rejected the "emotional" resignation of head coach Fatih Tekke after the Turkish side, who signed Mohamed Salah in the summer, were knocked out of the Europa League on Thursday night.
The Super Lig team suffered a 4-0 defeat by Ferencvaros in Hungary on Thursday to lose the play-off tie 5- 0 on aggregate..
In the aftermath, Tekke, who led Trabzonspor to a third-place finish in the league last season, tendered his resignation.
But that was rejected by the club on Friday morning, with the club saying the 48-year-old's decision stemmed from the "intense emotional impact" of the Europa League exit.
Trabzonspor will compete in the Europa Conference League this season instead and will find out their six opponents for the league phase on Friday.
