Quique Sanchez Flores has been confirmed as the new Getafe manager.

The Spaniard returns for his third spell at the club on the outskirts of Madrid, the first having lasted a season and the second just a month. He will hope that this stay is longer – although there are no guarantees.

The coach’s deal only runs until June, which tells you everything you need to know.

This is a roll of the dice on both sides. The post-Pepe Bordalas era was always going to be difficult for Getafe, and finding a new identity is their priority.

Sanchez-Flores, on the other hand, has had a few bad jobs in a row now, and needs to recover what was once an impressive reputation as an up and coming coach. His last spell as a manager, at Watford, saw him sacked without achieving a win. Getafe only have one point to their name so far this season, so things can only get better.
