Marsaxlokk FC has announced they parted ways with coach Winston Muscat following a string of poor performances in the 360 Sports Malta Premier League. The decision comes after the team suffered five consecutive defeats, leaving them without a single point in their opening matches of the season. The latest setback was a disappointing 4-2 loss to Mosta on Monday, further intensifying the pressure on the coaching staff.
In a statement issued by the club, Marsaxlokk expressed their gratitude to Muscat for his efforts during his tenure. The statement read: “We would like to thank Winston Muscat for his hard work and dedication to Marsaxlokk FC. His commitment to the club and the players has been commendable, but after careful consideration, we believe that a change is necessary to improve our current situation.”
Muscat, who took charge of the team prior to the season, faced mounting challenges as the team struggled to find form and consistency. Despite promising moments, the results did not reflect the potential of the squad, leading the club to reassess their direction.
The decision to part ways with Muscat signals Marsaxlokk’s determination to turn their fortunes around and regain competitiveness in the league. The club hopes that a new appointment will reinvigorate the team and help them secure points in the upcoming matches.
As the search for a new head coach begins, Marsaxlokk’s players and supporters remain hopeful for a swift turnaround in their performance as they look to climb out of the bottom of the league standings. The club is committed to making the necessary adjustments to ensure a successful season moving forward.
