Official: Valencia sack Corberan

This is the official statement from Valencia in full:

"Valencia CF have announced their decision to part company with CEO of Football Ron Gourlay, as well as members of his operational team: Lisandro Isei, Hans Gillhaus, Andres Zamora, and Malek Shafei.

This decision aligns with the club's intention to embark on a new chapter within its sporting structure and the operational management of the football department.

Valencia CF wish to thank Ron Gourlay for his dedication and hard work throughout his tenure with the club.

Furthermore, Valencia CF have terminated the contract of first-team head coach Carlos Corberan and his coaching staff.

Carlos Corberan took the reins at Valencia CF in December 2024 to spearhead the sporting project under challenging circumstances, which he successfully turned around. He carried out his duties with professionalism, passion, and unwavering commitment across 72 official matches.

The club express their gratitude to the manager and his entire coaching staff for their tireless efforts throughout their spell at the helm.

The club will announce the new operational structure of the football department and the framework for the upcoming sporting project in due course.

On an interim basis, VCF Mestalla head coach Oscar Sanchez will oversee first-team duties.

The club wish to convey a message of stability and confidence for the future, reaffirming their commitment to building a robust, competitive, and sustainable sporting project."
