Serbian coach Nibucha Vuckovic has returned to coach Ahli Jeddah, four months after his exit from the Saudi club.

Ahli announced that their former coach will return to replace sacked German manager Theo Bucker after the team's poor start to the current season, losing three league games of four.

Vuckovic led the Jeddah outfit to winning the Saudi Cup and Crown Prince Cup last term, but he disagreed with the Ahli board over a new contract.

The Serbian demanded a one-year contract worth $1million at the end of last season, but this time he has reportedly agreed terms with Ahli on $300,000.
