There seems to be a competition across the top leagues in Europe on who does it better as far as sacking coaches.

While the sixth (Paul Clement) was sacked in the Premier League some days back, the managerial casualties in the Spanish La Liga has also increased as Eduardo Berizzo has been sacked as Sevilla coach.

The former Celta Vigo boss was appointed in June following Jorge Sampaoli’s decision to leave and take up the reins of Argentina’s national team.

Expectations were high at the start of the season after the squad received an estimated €65million of investment, but Berizzo struggled to implement a style or impose an identity on the team, and a board meeting on Friday confirmed the former River Plate defender’s fate.

A statement shortly after the conclusion of the meeting read: “The Board of Directors of Sevilla FC, who met this Friday, December 22, has taken the decision to dismiss the coach of the first team, Eduardo Berizzo, due to the team’s bad run.”

Sevilla also confirmed that they have already started discussions in an attempt to hire Berizzo’s successor, with Javi Gracia, Luis Enrique and Laurent Blanc thought to be among the favourites.

Their statement concluded: “Sevilla FC reports that we have already begun talks to formalise the hiring of the new coach, who is expected to join with the return of the staff after the Christmas holidays.”

Sevilla are in action in a Copa del Rey trip to Cadiz on January 3, with their next LaLiga outing coming three days later against bitter local rivals Real Betis.

Sevilla still sit fifth in LaLiga and have qualified for the knockout phase of the Champions League.

Manchester United had the opportunity to sign Kylian Mbappe and Gabriel Jesus for a token as advised by Ryan Giggs but the Old Trafford outfit ignored the legend’s wishes.

The Red Devils legend in an interview with The Times claimed he had watched the two players for a while when they were much younger and had encouraged Manchester United to sign them.

“I watched Gabriel Jesus play three years ago,” Giggs said. “I watched [kylian] Mbappe for a year.

“I was watching them with the scout and it was a no-brainer. It was just like, ‘Get them.’ It would have been £5 million or something.

Although Giggs knew they would not have got into the first team at the time as mere teenagers, his plan was to sign them and then loan them back to their respective clubs so they could continue to develop before United brought them to Old Trafford when they were ready.

“Get them, loan them back. And that’s where the recruitment could have been better.”
