Gregorio Manzano has been officially announced as Mallorca's new coach and will lead the club for the third time in his career.

Manzano takes over just a day after Joaquin Caparros was sacked from the position and is delighted to be rejoining the club that means "everything" to him.

He told AS: "I am returning to a place which, from a professional point of view, has meant everything to me - not just because of the amount of timer I spent here but also for the great affection I received from everyone here, the matches we went through and time we spent together.

"Everybody here knows that I want the best for this club and for the fans. This is my home, where I have experienced so many things; good times and bad."

Manzano joins Mallorca as they sit 19th, four points from safety in La Liga.
