Leicester City Football Club has parted company with Steve Cooper, who leaves his position as First Team Manager with immediate effect.
Jordan Ayew’s late consolation goal was a tiny positive in the Foxes 2-1 home defeat against Chelsea on Saturday.
Assistant Manager Alan Tate and First Team Coach and Analyst Steve Rands have also left the Club.
First Team Coach Ben Dawson, is expected to take interim charge of the team, 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.
Cooper struggled to replicate Leicester’s fine attacking form which propelled them to the EFL Championship title last season, with the side currently 16th in the league, a point above the relegation zone.
