Gregorio Manzano takes over Mallorca for third time

Gregorio Manzano has been officially announced as Mallorca's new coach and will lead the club for the third time in his career.

Manzano takes over just a day after Joaquin Caparros was sacked from the position and is delighted to be rejoining the club that means "everything" to him.

He told AS: "I am returning to a place which, from a professional point of view, has meant everything to me - not just because of the amount of timer I spent here but also for the great affection I received from everyone here, the matches we went through and time we spent together.

"Everybody here knows that I want the best for this club and for the fans. This is my home, where I have experienced so many things; good times and bad."

Manzano joins Mallorca as they sit 19th, four points from safety in La Liga.
