Leeds United sack US manager Jesse Marsch

Jesse Marsch has been sacked as coach of Leeds United, the English club announced on Monday, which is dangerously close to the relegation zone of the Premier League.

The American coach pays for the bad results of the Yorkshire club, currently placed 17th in the Premier League and first outside the relegation zone, thanks to the goal difference, after Sunday’s defeat by Nottingham Forest by 1-0.

Leeds last won on November 5th.

“Leeds United can confirm that manager Jesse Marsch has been relieved of his duties,” the club tweeted.
