Granada, facing a turbulent season, announced the departure of manager Paco Lopez on Sunday, signaling a significant shift just months after he guided them to promotion in La Liga. The decision comes on the heels of Granada's 3-1 defeat at the hands of Alaves, leaving them in the 19th spot in the league table.
The club's struggles are further highlighted by their winless streak of 11 league games, accumulating a mere seven points from 14 matches. Adding to their woes, Granada was recently disqualified from the Copa del Rey due to the use of an ineligible player.
Paco Lopez, who took the reins in November of the previous year, had initially steered Granada to triumph in the Spanish second-tier league, securing a return to the top tier just a year after their relegation.
However, the recent string of poor performances and setbacks prompted the club's decision to part ways with Lopez. The managerial change extends to Lopez's technical staff, as Granada clarified in a statement that they too would be leaving the club.
Granada now faces the challenge of restructuring under new leadership, aiming to turn the tide and navigate their way out of the lower echelons of the league table. The departure of both the manager and his technical staff marks a crucial juncture for Granada as they seek a resurgence in form and fortunes.
