Ex-Ghana coach Claude Le Roy has stepped down from his role as coach of the DR Congo after just two years in charge. The Frenchman, who led the revival of the side at the 2013 Africa Cup of Nations, has told his players about his decision. �I told my players that I would stop after two years,� said Le Roy, whose contract with the African country was set to expire shortly. �With the team and the federation we�ve had some terrific moments. I haven�t made a decision regarding the next continent I�ll work in,� he added. Le Roy, 65, took over the reins in September 2011, leading the country to the CAF African Cup of Nations 2013 after three previous failed attempts to qualify. However, in what was Le Roy�s seventh appearance at the CAF Africa Cup of Nations after also taking Cameroon, Senegal and Ghana to the tournament, Congo DR failed to advance from the first round despite finishing the group stage undefeated. The contract of his assistant Sebastian Migne was also terminated.
