Villarreal have confirmed the appointment of former Real Valladolid coach Pacheta as their new boss.

The 55-year-old takes over Estadi de la Ceràmica following the departure of Quique Setién, who was dismissed earlier this week after the club made a poor start to the new season.

Former Real Madrid striker Raúl – who currently coaches Los Blancos’ Castilla team – was reportedly interviewed for the role, but the club have opted for the experience of Pacheta, and he will take charge for the remainder of the 2023/24 season.

The former Huesca and Elche boss has been out of work since he was sacked by Valladolid back in April this year.
