Changes are coming at Southampton, as the Premier League side attempts to fend off relegation this season.
The Saints announced on Monday that the team has parted ways with manager Mauricio Pellegrino, after his side fell just above the relegation zone.
Since taking over at St. Mary’s Stadium in June 2017, Pellegrino has won just eight matches with Southampton, slightly above 23 percent of the games he has coached.
Additionally, the club revealed that assistants Carlos Compagnucci and Xavier Tamarit have also left the PL side.
The Saints currently sit one point above the bottom three with eight matches remaining in the 2017/18 PL season.
It’s unclear what direction Southampton will take moving forward for the rest of the season, but a number of veteran PL manager remain available.
Mark Hughes, Slaven Bilic, Frank de Boer, Marco Silva and Paul Clement have all coached in England within the last year, and do not currently hold jobs at other clubs.
Hughes -- in particular -- could be an enticing hire for the Saints considering the veteran coach was a player at St. Mary’s back in the late-1990s for several seasons.
