Coaching career

edit

After Karl Heinz Feldkamp resigned at the end of 2007–08 season, he took over the managership and became the first coach to win the Süper Lig by joining a club after the season start. Players of Galatasaray nicknamed him "father" after this success.[citation needed]

Following Michael Skibbe's managership control at Galatasaray, Cevat Güler became one of the assistant coaches of the Galatasaray football team. His contract was not expanded by the club after the arrival of Frank Rijkaard in 2009 summer.[2]

Güler was appointed manager of Azerbaijani Premier League side Ravan Baku on 12 July 2012. He lasted six weeks before being sacked on 25 August 2012.[3] In total he managed four games in the Azerbaijan Premier League drawing three and losing one.[4] On 13 April 2013, Güler replaced Hector Cuper as manager of Süper Lig side Orduspor[5] He lost his first game in charge on 20 April 2013 against Kasımpaşa.[6]
