SEVILLA have sacked Diego Alonso after just nine weeks in charge – leaving him with an unwanted LaLiga record.
Alonso replaced Jose Luis Mendilibar in October but managed just 14 matches in total.
His only two victories came in the Copa del Rey, failing to win any of his eight La Liga matches and losing all four the Champions League games.
According to MD, Alonso’s record of five draws and three defeats in the worst record in La Liga history for someone that has managed one of the top ten “historically best teams”.
That includes Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid, Athletic Club, Valencia, Sevilla, Espanyol, Real Sociedad, Real Betis and Real Zaragoza.
Of the 531 managers that fall into this category, Alonso ranks dead last after being fired by Sevilla.
