The 52-year-old has lost his job after two-and-a-half years in charge of los Rojillos, with the club losing their first three league fixtures

Osasuna have sacked coach Jose Luis Mendilibar after making a winless start to the new Liga season.

The 52-year-old took charge in February 2011 following the dismissal of Jose Antonio Camacho and narrowly saved the club from relegation last season.

But three defeats in a row at the start of this term have left los Rojillos rock bottom of the Spanish top flight and seen Mendilibar pay the ultimate price.

Osasuna president Miguel Archanco announced the decision on Tuesday: "We will find a young coach who is committed to using young players."

The club are currently in their 14th consecutive season in La Liga and could appoint a new coach before the weekend, when they travel to Getafe.
