Leicester City sack manager Cooper after 12 league games
The Foxes were beaten 2-1 by a Chelsea side managed by former boss Enzo Maresca on Saturday – a defeat which left them two points above the relegation zone.
Cooper took over from Maresca in the summer after the Italian had led Leicester City to the 2023-24 Championship title and promotion back into the Premier League.
“Men’s first team training will be overseen by first team coach Ben Dawson, supported by coaches Danny Alcock and Andy Hughes, as the club begins the process of appointing a new manager, which we hope to conclude as soon as possible,” said a Leicester statement.
