Julen Lopetegui, sacked by Sevilla after 1-4 with Dortmund in the Champions League

Sevilla lost 4-1 at home to Borussia Dortmund and Lopetegui was sent off shortly after the match ended.

The Ramón Sánchez Pizjuan team is 17th in La Liga, which is too low to claim a team of Sevilla’s level.

Joining the team in 2019, Lopetegui won the Europa League trophy with Sevilla in 2020.

Jorge Sampaoli is the favorite to replace Julen Lopetegui.
