LEICESTER CITY SACKS MANAGER

 By Ebuzman

Brendan Rodgers has left his role as Leicester manager after four years at the club.

Jean-Philippe Mateta's last-gasp winner for Crystal Palace on Saturday saw Leicester dragged into the relegation zone as they suffered their fifth defeat in six matches.

According to Sky, talks between Leicester bosses and Rodgers took place on Sunday morning when it was agreed it was best for all parties that he leave his role with immediate effect.

"Brendan departs King Power Stadium as one of the most successful managers in the Club's history, having guided us to our long-awaited first FA Cup triumph in 2021, the FA Community Shield in the same year, two of the Club's three highest Premier League finishes and consecutive European campaigns, including our first European semi-final in 2022.
