Following a string of disappointing performances this season, Sevilla managed to secure only two victories in their last 13 matches across various competitions. Consequently, the club opted to dismiss their manager, Diego Alonso. The decision was prompted by the team’s demoralizing 3-0 loss to Getafe, wherein Mason Greenwood, formerly of Manchester United, notably scored a goal and assisted.

The dismissal of Alonso was promptly announced by Sevilla just hours after the humbling defeat. Their statement conveyed, “We would like to communicate that Diego Alonso has been relieved of his duties as first-team head coach. We thank him for his efforts and wish him the best for the future.”

Since assuming the role in October, Alonso guided Sevilla to merely two victories in La Liga, positioning the team perilously close to relegation. Furthermore, their elimination from the Champions League group stage added to their woes, finishing at the bottom without a single group stage win.

Sevilla intends to unveil Alonso’s successor shortly, aiming to rejuvenate the team’s performance under new leadership. Their upcoming fixture in La Liga against Granada on Tuesday marks the beginning of this fresh phase for the club.
