Claude Puel SACKED as Leicester manager after Crystal Palace thrashing
Leicester have sacked manager Claude Puel following a dismal run of results.The Frenchman, who was in charge for 16 months, has been given his marching orders after the Foxes were thrashed 4-1 by Crystal Palace at home.1

Claude Puel was sacked on Sunday morning

First team coaches Mike Stowell and Adam Sadler have been placed in charge temporarily while the club conduct their search for a new manager.The Palace result was the fourth successive home defeat for the club, who have failed to win any of their last seven matches in all competitions, and the ex-Southampton boss has now paid the price.Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is the early favourite to take over at the King Power Stadium.Foxes fans started turning on Puel during Saturday’s heavy defeat, and he had been under immense pressure after a winless run stretching back to 2018. The club said in a statement: “Leicester City Football Club has today parted company with Claude Puel, who leaves his position as First Team Manager with immediate effect.“The club would like to thank Claude for his efforts in leading the team during his 16 months in the role and wish him well in his future career.“Assistant Manager Jacky Bonnevay also departs with the clubs best wishes.

“First Team Coaches Mike Stowell and Adam Sadler, supported by the clubs established backroom staff, will assume responsibility for the senior squad while the club begins the process of appointing a new manager.“The Board will make no further comment until this process is complete.”Puel took charge of Leicester in October 2017, replacing Craig Shakespeare after a disappointing start to the season.The Frenchman steadied the ship and eventually led the Foxes to a ninth-place finish in the Premier League.He was backed by the club’s board last summer, spending money on the likes of James Maddison, Ricardo Pereira, Rachid Ghezzal and Caglar Soyuncu as he aimed to change Leicester’s style of play.However, his approach has been heavily criticised by supporters, especially his use of Jamie Vardy – with the former England striker also publicly questioning his manager’s tactics and training regime.
