Calleja at Villarreal
Print Edition
Villarreal promoted B team coach Javi Calleja to first-team boss yesterday following the sacking of Fran Escriba and his backroom staff.
A 0-4 thrashing at the hands of Getafe on Sunday left Villarreal just three points above the relegation zone in 14th with seven points from its first six games.
“Villarreal CF and Javi Calleja have reached an agreement for him to become first team coach for the 2017/18 season,” it said in a statement.
Ex-striker Calleja, 39, has been coaching Villarreal’s youth squads for six seasons. Escriba, 52, was a surprise appointment when Marcelino Garcia Toral was sacked just days before the start of the season in August last year.
