Leicester City have parted ways with manager Steve Cooper, the Premier League club confirmed in a statement on Sunday.

The 44-year-old took over at King Power Stadium in the summer and leaves the club in 16th place in the Premier League after 12 games. He also led Leicester into the Carabao Cup round-of-16 where they were beaten by Manchester United.

Cooper's last game in charge was Saturday's 2-1 loss to Chelsea, who are managed by his predecessor Enzo Maresca.
