CS Sfaxien is reportedly on the verge of announcing the departure of head coach Alexandre Santos following a series of disappointing results and performances that have failed to meet expectations.
The Portuguese tactician, who joined the club last summer from Petro Atlético, is said to be in discussions with the management to reach an amicable agreement for his exit.
Santos’ tenure, which began with high hopes for success, has been marred by underachievement.
Despite his reputation and experience, the team’s performances on the pitch have not lived up to the objectives set at the start of the season.
While results have been subpar, it is the lackluster displays from the squad that have drawn the most criticism from both the club’s leadership and its passionate fan base.
Supporters, who had hoped for a turnaround under Santos’ guidance, have grown increasingly discontent with the team’s inability to deliver consistent and inspiring performances.
The gap between expectations and reality has put the coach under immense pressure, leaving his future at the club in serious doubt.
Sources within the club suggest that discussions are ongoing to finalize the terms of Santos’ departure.
The aim is to reach a resolution that is satisfactory for both parties, allowing for a smooth transition as the club seeks to reset its ambitions for the remainder of the season.
If confirmed, Santos’ departure will mark a significant shift for CS Sfaxien as they look to regroup and find a new leader capable of reigniting the team’s competitive edge.
For Santos, the end of his stint in Sfax will bring an opportunity to reflect on his challenges and potentially seek fresh opportunities elsewhere.
An official announcement is expected in the coming hours, signaling the conclusion of a chapter that fell short of the hopes that accompanied Santos’ arrival.
Fans and analysts alike will now turn their attention to the club’s next steps in its quest to reclaim form and meet the high expectations synonymous with CS Sfaxien’s legacy.
