Coach Francois Ciccolini, team manager Sonny Anderson and the rest of the staff, appointed in June, were dismissed immediately after a 2-0 loss at champions FC Basel left them pointless and goalless at the bottom of the league after two games.
"They can't ask us to perform magic," Ciccolini told the online edition of 20 Minutes newspaper.
Anderson added: "He [Chagaev] is the chief shareholder, he makes the decisions."
The club could not be reached for comment.
Neuchatel have already fired two coaches, ditched all their sponsors and sacked their administrative staff since Chagaev (pictured, left) took control in May, saying he wanted to lead them into the Champions League.
On Friday, they sacked Brazilian goalkeeper Rodrigo Galatto after only one week and one game at the club following his performance in a 3-0 home defeat by FC Lucerne in their opening match of the season.
