Watford manager Javi Gracia has left his post, the Premier League club have announced.
The Spaniard, whose coaching team have also left Vicarage Road, had been in charge since January 2018 - making him the first Hornets boss to last more than one full season since 2013.
A club statement said there would be an "imminent appointment of a new coaching team".
Watford are bottom of the Premier League table with one point.
Gracia led the club to Wembley last season, where they lost 6-0 to Manchester City in the biggest FA Cup final win in over a century, as well as 11th place in the Premier League.

Lack of patience for coaches with most mid table clubs has really been a disaster.. Loss first 3 games, draw one match, end up at the bottom, COACH OUT!! [Crylaugh] Poor from Watford, Gracia took them to FA Cup finals and finished mid table, should've given him more time to prove himself..

Watford made a wrong decision to sacked Javi Gracia, after all he had done for them, helping to keep the team in the EPL, likewise going to FA cup final, what in case Valverde was the one coaching Watford after just spending about £150,000 in the transfer market? it's not easy for a club like Watford that didn't spend up to 30% compare to the top six teams in the EPL to reach FA cup final, i see them going relegation.

I thought only Chelsea sacks coaches easily. Javi Garcia is the only coach since 2013 to have stayed in Vicarage more than 1 season what a trophy like record he kept

Watford are very sharp, they had to sign a new coach before it’s too late, same thing happened to Fulham last season before they realized they had to sign a new coach it was too late

That's too bad... Too early to sack gracias... But if Ole doesn't change his tactical plans then he is next!!!
