Hull City manager Leonid Slutsky is poised to leave the club by the end of Monday, sources close to both parties have told ESPN FC.

Slutsky's future has been the subject of conjecture in recent weeks after a poor run of form in the Championship.

Although Hull salvaged a last-gasp draw at Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, they have now won only two of their last 15 games.

Former Russia manager Slutsky was appointed as Marco Silva's successor in June following relegation from the Premier League.

However, he has been unable to transform the team's fortunes, winning only four of his 20 Championship games to leave them three points above the relegation zone.

Slutsky's departure would leave Hull looking for their fourth manager in 18 months.
