• Real Valladolid were recently relegated from La Liga to the lower tier of Spanish football
• Ronaldo Nazario's club are keen to secure immediate promotion back to the first division
• The Brazilian legend has also made some drastic calls ahead of the new football season

Real Valladolid have recently grown to become a club closely watched by the media - not solely for their footballing activities - but because the club is owned by Brazil and Real Madrid legend, Ronaldo Nazario.

The Spanish club, which have found it difficult to maintain their top flight status, are again on a quest to secure promotion to the first division after suffering relegation from La Liga on the final day of the 2022/23 football season.

Faced with the headache of keeping its top players, who have become targets for bigger Spanish clubs, Real Valladolid faces even more attention after a shocking decision by its owner.

In addition to this, the Brazilian star also shown the door to Sanchez’s assistants - Luis Casas, Antonio Barea, and Jose Manuel Hernandez. They would all have been out of contract in 2024.

Football Espana reports that the news of the transfer team's sacking was communicated to them by Ronaldo’s right-hand man and Strategic Director of the Sporting Department, Paulo Andre.

Amid the sacking spree, many have also remarked on the notable absence of manager, Paulo Pezzolano, who was appointed just seven games before the end of the season last time out.

Instead, Valladolid's training sessions have been handled by assistant manager, Martin Varini.
