Celta dismisses Rafa Benítez. The Madrid coach arrived at Balaídos last summer as a strong bet from the new president for the Centennial season.

He signed a contract for three seasons, but the poor dynamics of his team, with only two points ahead of relegation, has accelerated his departure. Celta thanks Rafa Benís and his assistants for their "involvement, honesty and professionalism" since his arrival in Vigo, in addition to wishing him "a lot of luck and success" in the future.
