Argentina’s Jorge Sampaoli was sacked on Tuesday as coach of Sevilla, a club he joined last October to replace Julen Lopetegui, the Sevilla club reported, adding it hopes to hire a new coach on Tuesday.
Sampaoli’s departure comes after the previous day’s defeat to Getafe (2-0), leaving Sevilla in fourteenth place with twenty-eight points, two of Valencia’s relegation places.
Casilda’s coach officiated 31 official games in all competitions, with a record of thirteen wins, six draws and twelve losses.
Saying goodbye to the Sevilla fans this Tuesday after his resignation, Sampaoli confirmed that football does not always “return with joy to the insomnia” they devote to it and that he “has no doubts that it was worth offering this shield and give his heart.” ”.
Casilda’s coach points out in a letter on his Instagram profile that he has to say “goodbye to a city and some colors” that are close to his heart and that when they called him to return, he thought “it was a good option to close off a first stage that was somehow left open”.
Sampaoli left Sevilla in his first spell at the end of the 2016–17 season, despite having a current contract but being called up by the Argentina team. Now he leaves with a record of 13 wins, 6 draws and 12 losses in 31 official games. .
“Seville is the first team in my career in which I try a second chance. And I can confirm that, despite the fact that the circumstances were different, my affection for this shield does not break and remains huge,” emphasizes the Argentine coach, who is leaving “with your head held high because of the attitude at all times”.
In addition, he emphasizes that he will leave the team in the quarter-finals of the Europa League and because he “worked very hard to move this story forward”, for which he thanked the fans, “the players and every employee of the club: I doubt not sure that they will reach the goal,” he said.
