Dietmar Constantini will step down as coach of Austria when his contract expires at the end of the year after his team failed to qualify for Euro 2012.
The 56-year-old Constantini will not be offered a new contract, president Leo Windtner of the Austrian football federation said on Wednesday, a day after a goalless draw with Turkey ended Austria's final hopes of reaching Euro 2012.
Austria won just one game — a friendly against Latvia — in the last 10 matches under Constantini, who took over from Karel Bruckner halfway through World Cup qualification in April 2009.
Constantini is Austria's seventh coach since the team last qualified for a major event -- the 1998 World Cup in France.
