Argentine head coach Matías Almeyda has left his position at Sevilla, a team he joined in mid-2025, due to very poor results. The final blow for Almeyda was the 2-0 defeat this Saturday against Valencia during the 29th matchday of Spain's La Liga. This was the second consecutive defeat and the fourth match in a row without a win. Almeyda arrived at Sevilla at the start of this season after a successful spell at AEK Athens, where he won two titles (League and Cup 2023). However, his time with the Spanish team was not good, as they are in 15th place in La Liga with only 31 points and are in real danger of relegation. Sevilla also had a poor performance in the Copa del Rey, where they were eliminated in the Round of 16 by Alavés, according to the Argentine News Agency. At the end of the statement, it is highlighted: 'Sevilla wishes to thank Matías Almeyda and his team for their work these months and wishes them the best of luck in their future professional challenges.' The Spanish team was the sixth in Almeyda's career as a head coach, as he had previously been at River Plate (2011-2012), Banfield (2012-2015), Guadalajara's Chivas (2015-2018), San José Earthquakes (2019-2022), and AEK Athens (2022-2025).
