Sevilla coach Eduardo Berizzo will continue his recovery at home after being discharged from hospital following successful prostate cancer surgery.
Berizzo’s illness was revealed following Sevilla’s stunning comeback in a 3-3 Champions League draw against Liverpool last month.
Ernesto Marcucci was placed in charge of first-team affairs in Berizzo’s absence, with Sevilla offering no timescale for the coach’s return to the dugout.
A Sevilla statement released on Saturday read: “Eduardo Berizzo has been discharged from hospital this Saturday after four days of recuperation after undergoing surgery on Tuesday on the prostate adenocarcinoma he was diagnosed with a few weeks ago.
“Berizzo will continue his post-operation recovery at home.”
