Hull City have confirmed the departure of head coach Shota Arveladze.

Arveladze joined the club back in January and saw them stay in the Championship last season.

This campaign they are just above the relegation places after losing their last four league games.

The decision to sack the Georgian was made around eight hours before their next match against Luton Town.

Andy Dawson will assume the role of interim head coach.

Speaking about the decision Acun Ilıcalı, Hull City chairman, said.

"During the international break, we had a number of meetings with Shota to discuss the direction of the team and the future of the club. As these meetings went on, it became clear our views weren't aligned so we have made the decision to part ways.

"Shota and Peter leave with our thanks, greatest respect and fond wishes for the future.

"Our focus is now supporting Andy and the squad and finding the best possible candidate to drive this club forward."
