Porto sack coach Vitor Bruno
LISBON: FC Porto announced the dismissal of Vitor Bruno on Monday, becoming the third of Portugal’s three main clubs to make a coaching change this season.The 42-year-old replaced new AC Milan boss Sergio Conceicao in the close season but paid the price after Porto lost ground in the title race following back-to-back league defeats this month. Porto’s academy director Jose Tavares will take over as coach on an interim basis, the club said.
Sunday’s 3-1 loss away to Gil Vicente was Porto’s third in a row in all competitions. They were also beaten by Sporting Lisbon in the semi-finals of the League Cup on January 7. Porto have slipped to third in the table, four points behind leaders Sporting. Benfica moved into second place over the weekend.
Benfica parted ways with German coach Roger Schmidt at the end of August, while Sporting sacked Ruben Amorim’s successor Joao Pereira just over a month after the former departed for Manchester United.

Borussia Dortmund have sacked head coach Nuri Sahin after their Champions League defeat at Bologna.
The German side have lost four successive matches in all competitions since the winter break.
The 2-1 defeat against the Italian club on Tuesday was their third loss in this season's Champions League for last year's beaten finalists.
It means Dortmund must beat Shakhtar Donetsk in their final league phase game and hope other results go in their favour to automatically reach the last 16.
A run of three domestic defeats to start 2025 has left them 10th in the Bundesliga, seven points outside the top four and in danger of failing to secure Champions League qualification next season.
Sahin, 36, who had two stints at the club as a player, said: "Unfortunately, we have not managed to live up to Borussia Dortmund's sporting ambitions this season.
"I wish this special club all the best."
Sahin was appointed Dortmund boss in June 2024 as a replacement for Edin Terzic, who left following their Champions League final defeat to Real Madrid.
as an assistant coach to Terzic at the start of 2024 alongside Sven Bender.
"We value Nuri Sahin and his work very much. We hoped for a long-term collaboration and until the end we had hoped we could achieve a sporting turnaround together," said Dortmund sporting director Lars Ricken.
"This decision hurts me personally, but it was unavoidable after the game in Bologna."
