Leicester City have parted ways with Steve Cooper after few games into the 2024/25 English premier league.
In the early hours of Sunday, November 24, 2024, Steve Cooper as the substantive manager for the newly promoted club from the Championship, Leicester City has announced his astonishing departure from the club.
Further, Steve Cooper after taking in charge from Enzo Maresca, who aided Leicester City to regain their English premier league status in the 2023/24 Championship season however, landed a job after Chelsea FC had shown Mauricio Pochettino the exit doors from the club.
Meanwhile, Cooper has resorted to switching off his managerial job at Leicester City after just twelve English premier league and few games in the domestic league cups.
Additionally, in Steve Cooper’s last three English premier league games as a Leicester City boss, he has lost two and drew one which was involving a fellow newly promoted side, Ipswich FC.
Alan Tate and Steve Rands who were both part of Steve Cooper’s back room staff have all exited Leicester City with immediate effects whiles Ben Dawson, Danny Alcock, and Andy Hughes have been mandated to supervise the club’s first team training in the subsequent days until a new substantive head coach is appointed.
More so, Leicester City are currently the sixteenth best placed team on the English premier league table after match-week twelve having conceded twenty-three and scored fifteen and can only boast of ten points out of possible thirty-six available points.
Steve Cooper has become the second manager to be fired from any of the top five clubs in Europe after Manchester United’s immediate past manager, Erik Ten Hag was asked to leave the club few weeks ago.
