With Hercules bottom of the table at 26 points now, despite being the only club to have beaten top team FC Barcelona and losing 0-4 last weekend to fellow strugglers Osasuna, the club decided to fire coach Esteban Vigo. The club's first choice, Juan Carlos Mandia, the ex-Tenerife coach who was practically signed/sealed and delivered to Alicante, was not allowed by the Spanish Football Federation to accept the position because he had already been coach at Tenerife this year.
The speculation is that ex-Real Madrid forward and UD Almeria, Pumas, and Mexico coach Hugo Sanchez is the primary target to take over at the Jose Rico Perez Stadium and win their safety from relegation. Heaven help Hercules.
