Sevilla confirmed the dismissal of head coach Matias Almeyda on Monday. The move leaves the seven-time Europa League champions mired in 15th place within La Liga.

Matias Almeyda has been relieved of his duties as Sevilla FC first team head coach. Sevilla FC want to thank Matias Almeyda and his team for his efforts and professionalism and wish him the best for the future.
The club provided no details regarding an immediate replacement or an interim appointment. This lack of direction comes ahead of a two-week international break.
