Lopetegui was sacked by Seville after a heavy home defeat against Borussia Dortmund – Sevilla

The He suffered defeat at home at the feet of Borussia Dortmund This was the last straw. Julen Lopetegui is no longer coach of Sevilla, and confirmation of his departure came just minutes after that result exacerbated the increasingly complex situation for Andalusians in the Champions League, with just one point in three matches. Indeed, even before this statement, his departure already seemed doomed, because after the final whistle, when he was heading to the locker room, clearly worn out, the coach was dragged onto the pitch by sporting director Monchi to say goodbye to the fans. Lopetegui, completely moved, did so, giving the first indication of what was to come in minutes. In fact, even the fact that Seville has a farewell video made (see tweet below) suggests that the departure will indeed be set. This ends the Andalusian club’s nearly two-and-a-half year run of former Porto, with the Europa League taking over in 2019/20 being the highlight.
