Mauricio Pellegrino has been named new coach of Cadiz.

The Argentine arrives to replace Sergio Gonzalez, who was sacked earlier this week.

Cadiz sit currently in 18th place on the LaLiga table with 15 points in 21 matchdays and fresh from a run of 17 games without a win.

Pellegrino returns to LaLiga after spells with Valencia, Alaves and Leganés.
