Brendan Rodgers has been sacked by Leicester after the club dropped into the Premier League relegation zone following a late defeat at Crystal Palace on Saturday. The loss extended their winless run to seven matches, an alarming sequence that triggered crisis talks and the end of Rodgers’s four-year tenure.
The club said they have reached a “mutual agreement” with Rodgers, who was under contract until 2025. The 50-year-old is and is the 12th top-flight manager to depart this season. Rodgers, who guided Leicester to the FA Cup in 2021, leaves with the club a point from safety with 10 games to play.
