Minerva Punjab FC have announced that head coach and technical director Paul Munster has left the club citing personal reasons.
The Irish striker-turned-coach was brought on board by Minerva Punjab in August 2018, but the defending champions have seen their campaign go topsy-turvy this season. They are currently ninth on the I-League table and have managed to win only three games out of the 16 they played.
The prepared statement issued by the club read as follows:
Due to personal reasons, I have decided to move back to Sweden and pursue my career there. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time at Minerva Punjab FC and I am leaving with a heavy heart, I wish the team and the club the very best of luck for the remaining season.
Paul Munster
I am very sad to see Paul go, he is more than just a coach, he’s been a great friend and a confidant. Though it came out of the blue, I understand and accept his decision. I have nothing but best wishes for Paul.
