Tensions appeared to heighten following a string of disappointing results that saw the club lose ground to title rivals, further weakening Mihic’s position.
The writing seemed to be on the wall for Mihic, especially after a frustrating spell that mirrored the fate of his predecessor, Brazilian tactician Leonardo Neiva, who also exited after a short stint.
