Celta announce Berizzo exit amid reports of Sevilla move

After three years at the helm, the manager will depart when the season ends as talk continues that he is to replace Jorge Sampaoli at Sevilla

Celta Vigo have announced that head coach Eduardo Berizzo will leave the club at the end of the season.

The 47-year-old is to step down from his post, along with his main backroom staff, following their final La Liga match of 2016-17 against Real Sociedad on Sunday.

Berizzo has been heavily tipped to take over at Sevilla, with Jorge Sampaoli having confirmed this week that he would be keen to accept an offer to become the new head coach of Argentina.
