Malaga CF have confirmed that Victor Sanchez del Amo has left his role as head coach for disciplinary reasons.
The former Deportivo La Coruña and Real Betis coach had originally been suspended over the leaking of a video with sexually explicit content on Tuesday.
“MCF have decided to terminate the contract of Victor Sanchez del Amo with immediate effect on January 11, 2020,” Malaga said in a statement.
“MCF has used best endeavours to attempt to resolve the situation amicably through intense negotiations with Víctor Sánchez del Amo. However, despite the ongoing and incessant efforts undertaken by the Club, it has not been possible to reach a friendly separation.
“As such, MCF has made the decision to dismiss Víctor Sánchez del Amo due to disciplinary reasons, in accordance with the applicable regulations. MCF has made the decision, taking into account the serious damage caused to the institution by the recent events, aiming to minimise the impact on the team and the entire MCF organisation,” the club added.
