Zetti resigns after four games at Brazil's Ponte Preta
RIO DE JANEIRO, Aug 23 (Reuters) - Ponte Preta boss Zetti has resigned after only four matches in charge, becoming the 21st coaching victim since the Brazilian championship started in April.
"Zetti is no longer part of the technical commission," said a statement on the team's website on Tuesday. "He resigned this morning."
The former Brazil goalkeeper, who had a short stint at Sao Caetano earlier this year, lost all four games in charge after replacing Oswaldo Alvarez, who left to coach Japanese club Tokyo Verde.
Ponte, who led the table for nearly one month, have now slumped to eighth place in the competition.
The club said assistant coach Nene Santana would take over on an interim basis.

Babunski to coach Macedonia for two World Cup qualifiers
SKOPJE, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Former Macedonia international Boban Babunski was appointed as his country's coach for their two remaining World Cup qualifiers, the Macedonian Football Association (MFA) said on Thursday.
The 37-year-old will be in charge for the matches away to Finland on September 7 and the Netherlands on October 12 after Serb coach Slobodan Santrac resigned two days ago citing his wife's health problems.
A new coach will be named to lead the side in the European championship qualifiers, which begin after the World Cup, the MFA said.
Under Santrac, who had been in charge since March, the Macedonian side had a disappointing spell of just one win and three defeats.
Macedonia are fifth in European zone Group One after 10 games and cannot qualify for next year's finals in Germany.

Deportivo's Luque to join Newcastle for 14 million euros
MADRID, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Deportivo Coruna have agreed to sell Spain striker Albert Luque to Newcastle United for 14 million euros ($17.18 million).
Primera Liga Deportivo said the transfer was finalised late on Thursday and that the player had been given permission to travel to Newcastle on Friday to undergo a medical.
Depor president Augusto Cesar Lendoiro said the deal had been closed "on (financial) conditions very different to those that had originally been offered".
The 27-year-old Luque will sign a five-year contract with his new club, according to Spanish media reports.
Newcastle's decision to sign Luque seems to signal an end to their bid to sign Michael Owen from Real Madrid.
The English Premier League club had agreed a club-record fee of 15 million pounds ($27 million) with Real to sign the England striker.
But Owen appeared reluctant to move on a permanent basis, preferring to hold out for a possible move to his former club Liverpool.
Newcastle's signing of Luque marks an end to their search for a strike partner for Alan Shearer.
The Tyneside club, who are managed by former Liverpool and Scotland midfielder Graeme Souness, have only one point from their opening three league games and are yet to score this season.
Luque joined Deportivo from Real Mallorca in 2002 for 15 million euros.
He has always been a regular in Depor's first team and was the Galician side's top scorer with 11 goals last season.

Arsenal's Aliadiere joins West Ham on loan
LONDON, Aug 25 (Reuters) - French forward Jeremie Aliadiere has joined West Ham United on a season-long loan from Arsenal, the Premier League club confirmed on Thursday.
The 22-year-old had been on loan at Celtic but has failed to start a competitive game.
"The signing of Jeremie is another big coup for the club," West Ham manager Alan Pardew said on the club's website.
"He is an exciting young talent from Arsenal and along with David Bellion will bring some French flair to our squad."
Bellion also signed on loan from Manchester United earlier this month.

PSG midfielder Cana to join Olympique Marseille
PARIS, Aug 25 (Reuters) - Paris St Germain midfielder Lorik Cana is set to join Olympique Marseille while striker Danijel Ljuboja has been loaned to VfB Stuttgart, PSG said on Thursday.
"Lorik Cana, 22, who had made his professional debut with PSG, will join Olympique Marseille while Danijel Ljuboja, 27, is going to experience the German league," the club said on their website.
"Lorik wanted to leave and there was no point in trying to keep him here," a Parisian official said. "Marseille have made a substantial offer and he (Cana) has decided to go."
PSG are top of Ligue 1, level on 10 points with champions Olympique Lyon, thanks to three wins and a draw. Marseille are 19th with one point.

Former Sweden goalkeeper Hedman retires
STOCKHOLM, Aug 26 (Reuters) - Former Sweden and Celtic goalkeeper Magnus Hedman announced his retirement on Friday, citing a lack of motivation as the reason.
"It's hard to be number one and then go to the bench," the 32-year-old told the website of the Swedish daily Expressen. "The motivation has dropped."
Hedman was Sweden's first choice at Euro 2000 and the World Cup finals two years later.
But Stade Rennes youngster Andreas Isaksson then took over in goal and Hedman was unable to force his way into the side for Euro 2004 in Portugal.
Hedman began his career with AIK Stockholm before moving to the English Premier League in 1997 to join Coventry City.
Coventry were relegated in 2001 and Hedman left for Celtic a year later.
He was unable to win a regular starting place at the Glasgow club and was released at the end of last season.

Santrac resigns as Macedonia coach
SKOPJE, Aug 23 (Reuters) - Macedonia coach Slobodan Santrac has handed in his resignation, the Macedonian Football Association said on Tuesday, ending a disappointing spell in charge of the national team.
In a letter to Haralampie Hadjiristeski, the Macedonian FA, Santrac said his wife's health problems were his main reason for stepping down.
Santrac took over from Dragan Kanatlarovski in March but managed just one win and three defeats in four games, including the 3-0 World Cup qualifier defeat by Finland last Wednesday, triggering calls for his resignation.
Macedonia are fifth in European zone Group One after 10 games and cannot qualify for next year's World Cup finals in Germany.
Hadjiristeski said a replacement would be appointed soon for Macedonia's two remaining World Cup qualifiers in Finland on September 7 and the Netherlands on October 12.
A new coach would be named to lead the side in the European championship qualifiers, which begin after the World Cup.

Bonfrere stands down as South Korea coach
(Adds S.Korean reaction, edits)
By Peter Rutherford
SEOUL, Aug 23 (Reuters) - South Korea coach Jo Bonfrere has resigned and the search for his successor will begin immediately with the World Cup finals less than a year away, the Korea Football Association (KFA) said on Tuesday.
Dutchman Bonfrere steered South Korea to their sixth consecutive finals in June, but a string of poor performances since had prompted widespread calls for him to step down before next year's tournament in Germany.
"Bonfrere informed the KFA of his decision on Monday and the members of the technical committee have agreed to accept his resignation," said Kang Shin-woo, vice chairman of the KFA's technical committee.
"The KFA did not ask Bonfrere to step down," he added in a televised news conference.
Bonfrere said there was never enough time to build a solid team because key players active in Europe would be brought back just days before a match.
"No coach in the world can bring a team together in two days," he told reporters after the announcement.
Criticism of Bonfrere's leadership increased after South Korea finished last behind China, North Korea and Japan in the East Asian championship earlier this month.
A 1-0 home defeat by Saudi Arabia in their final World Cup qualifier last week had fans and media clamouring for his resignation, prompting the KFA to convene a meeting of its technical committee.
"Bonfrere has decided that it would be difficult for him to continue in the job of coach under the current circumstances," said You Young-cheul, KFA media director.
Asked about a successor, You said the committee was meeting on the issue. It was expected to reach a decision within a month, committee chairman Lee Hoi-taek was quoted as saying by South Korea's Yonhap news agency.
Bonfrere was himself a surprise replacement for Humberto Coelho, who stepped down in April last year after a humiliating 0-0 draw with the Maldives in a World Cup qualifier.
Coelho had also cited a lack of time to work with players as one of the reasons for his side's disjointed displays.
South Korean media have already been speculating about possible replacements, among them Mick McCarthy, manager of English Premier league side Sunderland, and former Senegal coach Bruno Metsu.
With time short, former South Korean coach Kim Ho said the search might have to be narrowed to Koreans.
"It would take a little time to bring in a foreign leader at this point. I think it would be good to pick a person here," Kim was quoted as saying by YTN television.
The urgency was also reflected in an online poll conducted by the JoongAng Ilbo newspaper, where 57 percent of the respondents said they preferred a Korean coach.
The job appears to have become something of a poisoned chalice since Guus Hiddink took South Korea to the semi-finals of the 2002 World Cup on home soil.
"You in the media brought it to the people that this team wasn't as good as it was in the 2002 World Cup -- and that's not fair," said Bonfrere.
"The media and fans had too much expectation." (Additional reporting by Kim Miyoung and Jack Kim)

Brazilian Denilson joins Bordeaux on one-year deal
PARIS, Aug 23 (Reuters) - Brazilian midfielder Denilson is joining Girondins Bordeaux from Spanish side Real Betis on a one-year deal for an undisclosed transfer fee, the French Ligue 1 club said on Tuesday.
Denilson, who is 28 on Wednesday, joined Real Betis after the 1998 World Cup, when Brazil were losing finalists, for a then-world record fee of $35 million.
