Carlos Corberan thanks Valencia fans after dismissal from rock-bottom La Liga side | OneFootball

Carlos Corberan thanked Valencia supporters after his dismissal, with the team bottom of La Liga and winless after four defeats in five. He saluted their passion in his farewell message.

His final match was Friday night’s 1-0 defeat at Sevilla, with his exit confirmed on Sunday. Football chief executive Ron Gourlay also left the club. He said in a post that the fans’ passion and high standards pushed his staff to improve each day.

He expressed gratitude to players and employees, reflected on 629 days in charge and thanked the ownership headed by president Kiat Lim.

Corberan led West Brom to the Championship play-offs in 2023/24. Valencia finished 12th and ninth in his two seasons, and this campaign included a 5-0 home loss to Barcelona.

He quit The Hawthorns late on Christmas Eve 2024 to return to his hometown club, following more than two years at Albion during the last days of Guochuan Lai and the early months of Shilen Patel’s Bilkul reign.

Albion struggled to recover, making subsequent appointments of Tony Mowbray, Ryan Mason and Eric Ramsay.

After 72 matches in charge, he keeps the good times, wishes Valencia well now and ahead, and considers the club a lasting part of his life.
