EPL: Leeds manager sacked

Marsch has been dismissed with the club only above the relegation zone on goal difference ahead of two Premier League meetings with Manchester United this week.
Jesse Marsch replaced Marcelo Bielsa in February 2022 and kept Leeds in the Premier League last season; however, American leaves the club 17th in the table and only out of the drop zone on goal difference; Marsch oversaw more than £140m of spending on players this season.

The 49-year-old was appointed as the successor to Marcelo Bielsa in February 2022 and helped preserve the club’s Premier League status, which was secured with a dramatic final day win at Brentford in May.

Marsch then oversaw more than £140m of spending across the summer and January transfer windows, but Leeds find themselves at the wrong end of the table in 17th place.
