Sevilla Sack Sampaoli After Poor Form

Sevilla have announced the sacking of Jorge Sampaoli following the club’s poor form in the Spanish La Liga.

The former Argentina coach returned to Sevilla for a second stint in October.

The club have lost five of their last seven matches and are currently two points clear of the relegation zone.

An official statement from the club reads: “Sampaoli will no longer lead today’s training session, scheduled for 18.00, while the club is already working on recruiting a new coach as soon as possible.

Sevilla FC would like to thank Jorge Sampaoli for his dedication and commitment at the club and wish him the best of luck in his future.”

However, Sampaoli led them to the quarter-finals of the Europa League, where they will face Manchester United.

The 2-0 loss to Getafe was Sampaoli’s last match in charge.
