HONG KONG (Reuters) - Former Chinese Super League champions Shanghai SIPG have announced the departure of head coach Vitor Pereira, two years after the Portuguese led the club to their first and so far only league title.

Pereira took over at the start of 2018 from Andre Villas Boas and won the title in his first season, breaking Guangzhou Evergrande's seven-year stranglehold on the Chinese Super League trophy.
