Watford sack Quique Sanchez Flores after 85 days in to second spell

Watford Football Club have parted ways with Quique Sanchez Flores just ten games into his second tenure in charge of the London based club. 

The club's chairman Scott Duxbury released a statement this afternoon after yesterday's 2-1 loss to Southampton at St. Marys.

- "With regret, Watford Football Club confirms the departure of Head Coach Quique Sánchez Flores.

"Quique is a man of great integrity and it was clear how much he wanted to have a positive impact, but ultimately results have dictated our decision," said Hornets' Chairman & CEO Scott Duxbury.

"The appointment of a new Head Coach is imminent, and with nearly two-thirds of the season remaining, we will provide all the support necessary to make the coming months successful."

No further comment from Watford FC will be made until a new Head Coach is announced."

The Spaniard took over the reigns from fellow country man Javi Gracia, and has won just one of his 10 Premier League games in charge since returning to the club.

Watford remain rock bottom of the Premier League table, six points adrift of Norwich City with just one win from 14 games this season.
