Argentine coach Jorge Sampaoli has been sacked by Sevilla with the club just two points above the La Liga relegation zone.

The former Chile and Argentina coach joined Sevilla in October 2022 for a second stint in charge.

A run of five losses in their last seven matches leaves the Sevillistas Rojiblancos currently 14th in the table.

However, they have made it into the quarter-finals of the Europa League and will face Manchester United over two legs next month.

The 63-year-old Sampaoli’s last game in charge was a 2-0 defeat in the hands of fellow strugglers Getafe which leaves them on on 28 points with 12 games left.

Sevilla said they are already working on recruiting a new coach as soon as possible with their first game after the international break against 15th-placed Cadiz on Saturday, 1 April.
