Dijon have parted company with coach Patrice Carteron following their relegation from Ligue 1.

The 41-year-old took charge of the club three years ago and oversaw their promotion to the top flight at the end of the 2010/11 season.

However, their stay in Ligue 1 lasted a single campaign, with Dijon relegated on the final day following a 5-0 rout against Rennes.

A short statement on the club's website said: "President Olivier Delcourt and Patrice Carteron today decided by mutual agreement to bring an end to DFCO's co-operation with Mr Carteron.

"The club wishes to thank Mr Carteron for his three years at DFCO, whom he guided into the top flight, and wish him every success for the rest of his career."
