RCD Mallorca confirms Demichelis' departure to Leipzig

RCD Mallorca has confirmed the departure of Martín Demichelis, who leaves the club to join RB Leipzig. The news comes just three weeks after Demichelis renewed his contract with RCD Mallorca until 2028.

What happened?

Demichelis has been the coach of RCD Mallorca for twelve games, in which he has achieved five wins, three draws and four losses. His record is 18 points out of 36 possible.

Why is it important for RCD Mallorca?

Demichelis' departure is a blow to the team, which had placed its trust in him to lead the project to return to La Liga. The club had already started planning for the next season following the guidelines set by the South American coach.

What's next?

Sports director Pablo Ortells has worked against the clock to find a replacement that will allow the club to maintain its planned route for the new season. Luis García is the favorite to take over the RCD Mallorca bench and assume the challenge of returning the team to the top category of Spanish football.
