Head coach Juande Ramos has left Malaga by mutual consent following a poor run of results, the La Liga outfit have confirmed.

Ramos' position had been in doubt after owner Sheikh Abdullah Al-Thani tweeted farewell to the Spanish boss on the back of Malaga's Copa del Rey exit to second-tier side Cordoba, which left the team winless in five matches.

And Malaga announced the departure of the embattled 62-year-old on Tuesday, with the side managing just one win in seven games heading into 2017.

"Malaga would like to thank Juande Ramos for his work and honesty and wishes him all the best in the future in both his professional and personal life."
