The coaching career of legendary former Barcelona goalkeeper Víctor Valdés is off to a rocky start.
Details: Today, Valdés was dismissed from his position as head coach of Spanish fourth-division side Real Ávila.
Valdés was appointed as Real Ávila's head coach on April 24, but lasted less than a month in the job.
The decision came after Real Ávila were knocked out by Antoniano in the first round of the promotion playoffs for the third division.
In total, Valdés managed Real Ávila for just four matches. This was his first coaching role in four years.
Reminder: Today, the official date for the 2025 Ballon d'Or ceremony was announced.
