Tarragona-born Luis Miguel Ramis has been sacked as RCD Espanyol coach, the Catalan side announced in a statement on Tuesday. Minutes later it was revealed that his replacement will be Manolo Gonzalez, coach of the reserve team, until the end of the current season.
The reason for the dismissal was "the dynamic of the first team in the last few days of the competition", despite the fact that the 'Pericos' are third in the Spanish second division, one point away from second place and direct promotion. In the last two weeks they drew with Huesca (0-0) and Alcorcón (1-1).
Ramis took over the team on 5th November, replacing Luis Garcia. The club has thanked "the effort and involvement" of the coach and his staff. His record is seven wins, seven draws and four defeats in 18 official matches, including two in the Copa del Rey.
This brings to ten the number of coaches dismissed in the Spanish second division so far this season, the second in the same week after Real Zaragoza announced the departure of Julio Velázquez and the return of Víctor Fernández in his fourth spell in charge of the club.
