Valencia president Layhoon Chan has recorded a Christmas video message to say sorry to the club's fans after they endured yet more disappointment in 2016.
Los Che find themselves 17th in LaLiga at the halfway mark of the season, with incumbent Cesare Prandelli their third different full-time coach this year.
The disastrous reign of Gary Neville came to an end in March, his successor Pako Ayestaran lasting until September and caretaker Voro filling in for two matches before Prandelli took over in October.
The former Italy boss is yet to arrest Valencia's worrying form slump, leaving a team that had become accustomed to regular Champions League qualification facing the prospect of a fight for top-flight survival in 2017.
