Leicester have sacked manager Steve Cooper after just five months in charge following Saturday’s 2-1 home defeat to Chelsea.
The ex-Nottingham Forest boss joined the Foxes on a three-year deal in June but has been dismissed after a five-game winless run in all competitions.
A Leicester statement read: “Leicester City Football Club has parted company with Steve Cooper, who leaves his position as first team manager with immediate effect.
“Assistant manager Alan Tate and first team coach and analyst Steve Rands have also left the Club. Steve, Alan and Steve depart with our thanks for their contribution during their time with the Club and with our best wishes for the future.
