Stoke City have sacked manager Narcis Pelach after just 19 games.
The former Norwich coach was appointed in September at the age of 36, but has won just three of 18 games in the League Championship.
A 2-0 Boxing Day defeat at home to Leeds left his side 19th in the table, just three points off the relegation zone.
Stoke City have terminated the contract with Head Coach Narcís Pèlach.

Sporting director Jon Walters told the club’s website: “Narcis is a talented coach with a lot of potential, he works hard and I have no doubt he will continue to excel in the future.
“However, with the results and the way they have been in recent weeks, we have to accept in retrospect that he has shown that he is not fit for the team at this stage.
“I take full responsibility for this and I am determined that we will now make the right decision to move us forward.
“Every decision we make is driven by our love for Stoke City and our determination to bring success to the club.”
The Potters, who have lost five of their last six league games and are on the brink of relegation, are yet to announce their training squad for Sunday’s clash with top-flight Sunderland.
