A Premier League team fires its manager
Jesse Marsch has been fired as manager of Leeds United.
After a recent string of disappointing outcomes, the manager was let go.
Since November 5, 2022, Leeds has not won a Premier League game, and the American manager who succeeded Marcelo Bielsa last season has been shown the door.
They are currently 17th in the Premier League rankings, just outside the relegation zone on goal differential, and their 1-0 loss to Nottingham Forest on Sunday was the final straw.
The dismissal was confirmed in a brief statement issued by the team on Monday, along with the announcement of the replacement later in the week.
