Former Brazil defender Roberto Carlos was Friday appointed coach of Turkey's Akhisar Belediyespor.
The 41-year-old signed an 18-month contract coming into effect from Jan 9, the Akhisar-based club said on Twitter.
Currently occupying 11th position in Turkey's top division, Akhisar Belediyespor have failed to win any of their past seven matches.
