Scott Parker has left his position as Burnley head coach with immediate effect after the club’s relegation from the Premier League.
Parker had been in discussions over his future with Burnley’s chair, Alan Pace, since the team’s return to the Championship was confirmed by defeat against Manchester City on 22 April. The 45-year-old has departed by mutual consent, with respectful tributes paid on both sides, and his assistant, Mike Jackson, will take interim charge for the final four games of the season.
