Valencia CF sacks coach Gary Neville


Gary Neville has been sacked by Valencia after less than four months in charge, with former coach Pako Ayestaran taking charge until the end of the season. Neville, 41, was appointed head coach of the La Liga club on Dec. 2 but failed to turn their season around. In 16 games in charge of Valencia, Neville won just three games, drew five and lost eight. Los Che currently sit 14th in the table, six points above the relegation zone. A statement released on the club's official website read:
 "Valencia Football Club have today parted company with Gary Neville as head coach.
"After careful consideration, the club have decided to make a change with the best interests of the Valencia CF moving forward this season. We thank Gary for his work at Valencia and wish him the best in the future.
"The club have, today, appointed Pako Ayestaran as head coach until the end of the season.
