Leicester City have sacked manager Steve Cooper after the club dropped to 16th place in the Premier League, following 12 matches.
The decision comes after a 2-1 loss to Chelsea, now managed by former Leicester boss Enzo Maresca, which left the Foxes just two points above the relegation zone.
Cooper took over from Maresca in the summer after the Italian had led Leicester to the 2023-24 Championship title and promotion back into the Premier League.
“Men’s first team training will be overseen by first team coach Ben Dawson, supported by coaches Danny Alcock and Andy Hughes, as the club begins the process of appointing a new manager, which we hope to conclude as soon as possible,” said a Leicester statement.
