The crisis shakes Villarreal. The thirteenth club in the Spanish Championship has just fired its second coach of the season.
Like those of Olympique de Marseille, Villarreal players find themselves following the directives of a third coach this season. After Quique Setien at the beginning of September, José Rojo Pacheta was dismissed from his duties, the Liga club, thirteenth in the ranking, said in a press release on Friday.
The 55-year-old Spanish technician led twelve matches for five wins, three draws and four defeats. Pacheta is replaced by Miguel Angel Tena, director of football of the “yellow submarine”.
