Leicester City have decided to sack boss Brendan Rodgers amid speculation linking him with Tottenham Hotspur.
The Foxes lost yet again on Saturday afternoon, falling to a 2-1 defeat away at Crystal Palace.
Leicester were 1-0 up but contrived to concede twice and lose the game, leaving them in real relegation peril.
That’s now one point from the last six games for Leicester and they now sit 18th in the Premier League table.
Leicester are in serious danger of going down and the Foxes have confirmed that Rodgers has left the club by mutual consent.
Rodgers is leaving with immediate effect with coaches Chris Davies and Glen Driscoll also leaving alongside the Northern Irishman.
Leicester seriously fear dropping into the Championship and seemingly believe a change of manager can save them.
