The owner of a Swiss Super
League club has sensationally suspended his first team manager and announced
that he will take over as interim boss.
Christian Constantin,
President and Chairman of FC Sion, temporarily dismissed Fabio Celestini
following the club's 4-0 league defeat to St. Gallen on Saturday.
And it has since been revealed
that the 66-year-old will take his spot on the sidelines for both upcoming
matches against Lugano.
An official
club statement read: "FC Sion confirms the sidelining of Fabio
Celestini for a period of one week.

Celestini was appointed as
Sion manager in November following the departure of Paolo Tramezzani.
But he has so far won just one
of his eight games in charge.
The former Switzerland
international took charge of his first game in January, shortly after all
players returned from the World Cup break.
His first loss came in a
friendly against VfB Stuttgart.
Sion suffered a 3-0 defeat to
the Bundesliga side.

commonly known as simply FC Sion or Sion, is a Swiss football team from the city of Sion.

They have won the Swiss Super League twice, and the Swiss Cup in
13 of their 14 appearances in the final, the most recent being in 2015.
The first team of the club was
also known as their incorporated name Olympique des Alpes SA.
