Espanyol fire Machin
Espanyol, who are languishing at the bottom of La Liga, yesterday fired chief coach Pablo Machin after just over two months in the job, the club said.
“The club have decided to end his role as coach... as a result of the first team’s performance,” said an official statement on its website.
The club, which also gave marching orders to the other three members of Machin’s coaching team, said the aim was “to change the current situation of the white-and-blues” within La Liga.
Machin, who had a brief career as a Segunda Division player in the 1990s, was brought in to manage the Catalan team in October, replacing David Gallego who was also sacked over the team’s performance after just four months on the job.
