Valencia gives marching orders to coach and entire football structure

SAPO Notícias14 September 2026 at 11:59

Valencia CF announced this Tuesday the resignation of coach Carlos Corberán, as well as the dismissal of CEO Ron Gourlay and the entire football technical structure of the club. This decision marks a profound rupture in the leadership of the Valencian emblem, which is going through a troubled moment in its recent history.

Braulio Vázquez was announced as the club's new sporting director. The executive assumes the responsibility of restructuring the entire football department and finding a new coach for the first team, at a time when Valencia is fighting for sporting objectives that are not being met.

Carlos Corberán, who had taken charge of the team this season, failed to achieve the results expected by the club's board. His time at Valencia was thus marked by a sporting failure that led to his premature departure.

Ron Gourlay, who served as CEO of Valencia, was also removed from the position. The departure of the British executive represents a significant change in the management of the club, which now intends to follow a new direction with Braulio Vázquez at the helm of football.

Why this matters

Valencia fans are directly affected by this restructuring, which could mark a turning point in the team's performance. The replacement of Corberán and Gourlay by Braulio Vázquez indicates a change in sporting direction, which may influence future decisions on players, signings and the club's own philosophy. This news follows unsatisfactory sporting results that led to the decision to change the technical and administrative structure.
