Real Valladolid's first season in La Liga is not planned. After 15 match days, La Pucela is at the bottom of the standings – they are also already four points in the relegation zone, having played one more game.
Saturday's 5-0 at home to Atletico Madrid increased the pressure on manager Paulo Pezzolano. As such, Relief say that he is about to be fired from the position he has held since April 2023.
Pezzolano's relationship with the Valladolid supporters has been strained for some time now, and the board is starting to feel the same way. They have already lined up a replacement, which is ex-Girona and Rayo Vallecano manager Francisco, who is currently without a club.
It is clear that Valladolid are struggling, and ahead of their second round of the Copa del Rey against Real Avila on Tuesday night, it would not be a surprise to see a new coach in the dugout.
