Andorra have sacked coach Eder Sarabia.

The former Barcelona assistant coach was axed by owner Gerard Pique with Andorra sitting bottom of the Segunda Division table.

Andorra announced on Monday:

"Eder Sarabia is no longer the coach of the first team of FC Andorra. The board of directors has taken this decision due to the bad results of the tricolor team and with the aim of straightening the course to try to achieve permanence in professional football. Also, from the tricolor entity we want to show our deep gratitude to what is already one of the most important technicians in the history of the club for his work in these little more than three years leading the team.

"Eder Sarabia arrived in the Principality in January 2021 and in his first season on the first team bench he achieved promotion to the first RFEF and played in the promotion playoff to the second division. On that occasion, however, the subsidiary of Real Sociedad prevented the team from making the leap to professional football.

"It was in the coach's second season on the bench, the first since the beginning, when the longed-for promotion to LaLiga was achieved, a historic milestone for the entity. In addition, the following year, in the premiere in professional football, the team continued with its brilliant trajectory with an excellent seventh position. Some good results that, this year, despite a great start, the tricolors have not been able to maintain, which is why the club is now looking for a shocker to try to keep the category.

"In the same way, the club also wants to thank the work and dedication of second coach Jon López, leadership manager Javier Marigorta and analyst Guillermo Gómez who will also not continue in the tricolor discipline."
