Former Leeds United director of football Victor Orta is already looking for his second manager of the season at Sevilla, less than ten games into the new campaign.
Orta was appointed the Andalusian club’s sporting director over the summer, following his mutually agreed departure at Elland Road earlier in the year. Since arriving back at the club where he operated under self-professed mentor Monchi, Orta has worked with head coach José Luís Mendilibar. With Sevilla 14th in the LaLiga table, though, Orta has decided to part ways with the Europa League-winning coach.
Gracia has been out of work since leaving Leeds towards the end of last season, unable to turn the team’s fortunes as they were ultimately relegated from the Premier League. Gracia and Orta both departed Elland Road at the same juncture, following defeat by AFC Bournemouth on the south coast; the latter understood to have disagreed with the decision to relieve Gracia of his duties after only 70-or-so days in the role, and to replace him with seasoned Premier League manager Sam Allardyce.
