Sevilla FC announced on Sunday, April 13, 2025, the dismissal of coach Garcia Pimienta from his position, following the negative results the team has been experiencing in the current 2024/2025 season.

The Andalusian team is having a tough season in La Liga, currently sitting in thirteenth place with 36 points, just 7 points clear of the relegation zone, prompting the club's management to make the decision to sack him.

The dismissal came after the recent loss to Valencia by a score of 1-0 in the 31st round of La Liga, marking the fourth consecutive defeat after falling to Athletic Bilbao, Real Betis, and Atletico Madrid.

Spanish newspaper "Marca" confirmed that the decision to dismiss was not easy, but the series of defeats forced the management to intervene. The newspaper indicated that Spanish coach Joaquin Caparros will take over the team's coaching duties in the coming period, and is considered a temporary and safe option according to the management's perspective.

Sevilla is preparing to face Alaves next Sunday at the Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan Stadium, as part of the 32nd round of the La Liga.
