Charlton Athletic vs Brentford Confirmed Lineups

However, a horrid start to the Championship campaign has cost Luzon his job, with the club wielding the axe after Saturday’s embarrassing 3-0 defeat to London rivals Brentford.

But this season The Addicks have struggled, Saturday’s defeat leaving them third from bottom of the table, with just two league wins all season from 13 games.

Luzon, 40, was appointed in January and won 12 of his 36 matches in charge, steering the club to a safe 12th-placed finish last season.

“The contracts of Assistant Head Coach Damian Matthew and First-Team Coach David Martane have also been terminated”.

The 40-year-old Israeli who previously worked with owner Roland Duchatelet at Belgian giants Standard Liege, said recent injury problems had hampered his team selections.

The Addicks crashed 3-0 at home to Brentford at The Valley, prompting the club to dismiss head coach Luzon within two hours of the final whistle.

Luzon insisted, in an eight minute press conference, he was the right man for Charlton – despite ten winless games.

A further statement from the club will be made in due course.

Their last victory was back in August.
