Girona FC has officially confirmed the departure of their head coach, Míchel, effective immediately. This decision comes shortly after the Catalan club was relegated from La Liga this past weekend.
The team’s 1-1 draw with Elche in the final round of fixtures saw them finish the La Liga season in 19th place. This relegation marks a significant setback, occurring just one season after Girona achieved a historic qualification for the Champions League. The Blanquivermells will now face a season in La Liga 2 without the guidance of their long-serving manager.
In a statement released on the club’s website and social media platforms, Girona FC expressed their gratitude:
“Míchel Sánchez will not continue at Girona FC. The club wishes to extend its most sincere thanks to the Madrid coach for his dedication, commitment, and professionalism in leading the first team. We also acknowledge the personal, close, and respectful manner he has always maintained with club members, fans, management, and all employees of the Club.”
