Sevilla sacked head coach Matias Almeyda after a poor run of form, leaving the team close to the relegation zone.
At the start of Tottenham Hotspur's preseason tour in Hong Kong last summer, Thomas Frank went for his customary early-morning run, a ritual from his days as Brentford manager. But shortly after leaving the Kerry Hotel to take in the views of Victoria Harbour, Frank was quickly recognised by local fans, many of whom had lined the entrances and lobby areas of the Premier League club's luxurious base each day of their stay.
"This has been a difficult decision and not one I have taken lightly. I would like to thank Marti for the total commitment he has shown during his time at Leicester City. He gave everything to the role and worked tirelessly to help us achieve our targets."
"I was very surprised. Xabi is an exceptionally good coach. He did outstanding work in Leverkusen. I don't have insight into everything that's happening at Madrid, and it's not my place to judge. But it is a bit crazy, in such a short time. The football business is sometimes very fast-paced," Freund said (as captured by @iMiaSanMia).
"Results and performances over the course of the second half of last season and the start of the 2025/26 season have not matched expectations, and the board of directors believe that a change is necessary in order to help improve the team's position in the Premier League as soon as possible," the club said in a statement.
Fenerbahce have sacked Portuguese coach Jose Mourinho, two days after elimination from the Champions League playoffs by Benfica, the Turkish club said in a statement.

We thank him for his efforts for our team and wish him success in his future career, Friday's statement said.
Former Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has been sacked by Turkish club Besiktas. The 52-year-old took charge of the Istanbul club in January and steered them to a fourth-placed finish last season. But after defeat by Swiss side Lausanne in the Conference League play-offs on Thursday meant the club would not be playing European football this season, the club dismissed the Norwegian.
