According to Marca, Valencia will spend nearly 6 million euros to dismiss its coach and football director.

According to Marca's report, Valencia chairman Kiat has decided to sack Corberan and the football director with a cost of nearly 6 million euros.

It has been seven years since the Lim family set foot at Mestalla. Valencia chairman Kiat, Peter Lim's son, hurriedly left the VIP box after his team and family name suffered humiliation in the match against Barcelona. Since then, he decided to overhaul the entire sporting structure that was sold to him by his acquaintance and, as he now sees it, deceiver. A longtime family friend who has supported Valencia reminded me months ago: "The Scottish guy they hired is a con man." To this day, I still have my doubts about that assessment.

Kiat left Mestalla with his head down in front of the Lim family's old friend Juan Laporta, who had wounded his pride. That day, he decided that Corberan and the football director were no longer worth keeping. Kiat returned to Singapore to seek his father's approval and prepared to spend nearly 6 million euros to sack both of them. After Peter nodded his consent, Kiat made the decision without hesitation: let them go and start fresh with a new project.

It is clear that Valencia could not avoid relegation with the combination of Corberan and the football director. Together, they assembled the most mediocre squad in the club's history, and even Kiat, who is not particularly knowledgeable about football, saw that he had been deceived. A week ago, the football director claimed that everything was like paradise and the team was thriving, but the club continued to struggle in plain sight. Kiat attended the Barcelona match hoping to maintain this facade in front of Peter Lim, but clearly there was no way forward.

The only one retaining his position is general manager Javier Solis. He had previously been sidelined from football matters, and thus kept his job. All signs point to Solis being the one whispering in Kiat's ear, reminding him: sack everyone, or prepare many excuses to avoid being scolded by his father when he returns home.

Corberan and the football director should not have lasted until mid-season. At a normal club, there would be no way they could have survived. But both insisted that "everything was running smoothly," and as a result, they were sacked before mid-September. This was their own doing.

The challenge now is that Valencia must restart with a battered and underperforming squad. The new appointments face a major task, but with hard work, Valencia should be able to get back on the right track. A coach who cannot win will be sacked, and a football director who cannot deliver will also be sacked, even if the Lim family remains in charge.
