Sevilla Sack Jorge Sampaoli after 31 games in charge, and are reportedly in talks with former Eibar manager Jose Luis Mendilibar to take over.
Sevilla have announced that they have relieved Jorge Sampaoli of his duties following a bad run of form.
Sampaoli took the role in October, replacing Julien Lopetegui, who left for Wolves; he has now been sacked as Sevilla find themselves in a battle against relegation.
Sevilla sack Sampaoli
Sevilla announced via their official channels that they have sacked Sampaoli following the 2-0 defeat to Getafe that leaves Los Nervionenses only two points above the relegation places.
The sack ends Sampaoli's second spell at Sevilla, as he previously held the role at the club in the 2016/17 season, where he was in charge for 53 games.
The sacking comes before the international break, which precedes a run of fixtures crucial to Sevilla's season as they play Celta Vigo and a relegation tie against Valencia, sandwiched by a doubleheader against Manchester United in the Europa League quarter-final.
