Muñiz replaces Garitano at Alavés: eleventh change in the LaLiga dugouts
The Deportivo Alavés and Juan Ramón López Muñiz have reached an agreement for the Asturian coach to take charge of the first team until the end of the current season, as reported by Alavés on Sunday night on its website.
Alongside Juan Ramón López Muñiz, Álvaro Reina López joins as his assistant coach, and Antonio José López Mengual joins as the goalkeeper coach. López Muñiz replaces Asier Garitano, who was dismissed on Sunday afternoon.
The Basque team has suffered five consecutive defeats and the threat of relegation to the second division has led to this decision. The dismissal of Asier Garitano as coach of Deportivo Alavés is the eleventh change in the LaLiga Santander 2019-20 dugouts.
Juan Ramón López Muñiz will train the club until the end of the season.
