Valencia president Anil Murthy has lifted the lid on former coach Marcelino's sacking.
Murthy explained the reasons in an interview with the club's media channels.
"There was a loss of confidence in Marcelino's role in the long term model that the majority shareholder has for the club. In the summer there was a distancing between the decisions of the club and the decisive role -- of great influence -- that Marcelino demanded in our transfer policy, as well as public pressure that made things even more difficult," Murthy said.
"The club had supported him in everything, including his decisions in the transfer market. Even when things were at their worst on the pitch, in January, it was Peter Lim who finally decided to continue supporting him. This summer, however, the challenge and constant individual discrepancy towards that club model was unacceptable, and was not going to stop. His project was different to that of the majority shareholder."
