Jesse Marsch sacked as Leeds manager following terrible run of results

Jesse Marsch has been sacked as Leed's manager after a year in charge.

The American was relieved of his duties today following a poor run of results which has left the Yorkshire club just above the Premier League relegation zone on goal difference. The news came after Leeds were beaten 1-0 by Nottingham Forest yesterday.

Marsch was appointed Leeds manager in February 2022 and helped keep the club in the Premier League owing to a 2-1 victory at Brentford on the final day of last season. Leeds fans were hoping for a drastic turnaround in fortunes this season but after a positive start, which saw two wins and two draws from their first five league matches, they've only won two since. That last victory came against Bournemouth before the World Cup break.
