Former Real Madrid and Liverpool striker Fernando Morientes has lost his job as the head coach of Segunda B side Fuenlabrada.
The 39-year-old, who won the Champions League three times during his playing career, took charge of the Spanish third-tier side last June.
However, following a run of eight wins, eight draws and nine losses this season, he has been relieved of his duties with immediate effect.
"The decision has been very difficult and taken after a deep meditation," read a short statement on the club's official website.
Morientes has had previous stints in charge of the youth teams at Madrid and Huracan.
