Levante dismisses Javi Calleja
This is the official statement that the granota club has issued to announce the decision:
“The Board of Directors of Levante UD and the Sports Directorate, after the meeting held a few moments ago, have agreed on the non-continuity of Javier Calleja as coach of the men’s first team. The Madrid coach joined the Levante entity in October 2022 with the aim of taking the Granota team to the highest division. On the way to this goal, Javi Calleja’s men, under his command, went 19 consecutive days without knowing defeat and reached the last league match with options to be promoted directly to the First Division. Finally, despite the Barça victory, the results of the rivals in that fight were not positive for their interests and Levante UD was left on the verge of direct promotion by tying on points with the second placed team, UD Las Palmas, with the unfavorable goal average. Already in the promotion, a fateful action in the last seconds of extra time, prevented the promotion of the Valencians.
From Levante UD we want to thank Javi Calleja and his coaching staff, made up of assistant coach Quique Álvarez, goalkeeper coach Jesús Unanua, physical trainer José Romero and analyst Luismi Loro, for their great commitment and involvement since their arrival at the entity, his dedication and tireless work, his love for the club and everything it represents, as well as his closeness and good treatment with all the members of the entity. Likewise, we wish you the best of luck both personally and professionally.
From this moment on, Sports Director Felipe Miñambres will also take charge of directing the team from the bench and will appear before the media on Friday, along with the spokesperson for the Board of Directors, Maribel Vilaplana.”
