Ex-Leeds United director of football Victor Orta is set to appoint Diego Alonso as Sevilla’s new coach, after deciding to part ways with Jose Luis Mendilibar due to a concerning start to the season.
Orta’s first role since leaving Elland Road earlier this year saw him return to Seville, where he has taken on the position of sporting director at Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan. The charismatic directors’ box figure had previously worked under renowned scouting chief ‘Monchi’ at the Andalusian club prior to his involvement with Leeds and now holds the post previously occupied by his self-professed mentor.
Javi Gracia and Andoni Iraola, both managers Orta has hired – or tried to hire – were named as early frontrunners to be Mendilibar’s successor, but the ex-Leeds chief has reportedly landed on former Inter Miami coach and Uruguayan international Diego Alonso. The 48-year-old arrives in Spanish football having taken charge of various clubs in Paraguay, Uruguay, Mexico and the United States, before succeeding Oscar Tabarez as La Albiceleste boss in 2021.
