Jesse Marsch has today left his position as Head Coach at Leeds United.

It's following a poor run of results in the Premier League, with the Whites currently only out of the relegation zone on goal difference.

You can the statement released earlier by the club below:

Leeds United can confirm head coach Jesse Marsch has been relieved of his duties.

Jesse joined the club in February 2022 and was instrumental in keeping the club in the Premier League on the final day of last season.

Rene Maric, Cameron Toshack and Pierre Barrieu will also leave the club.

We would like to thank Jesse and his backroom staff for their efforts and wish them well for the future.

The process of appointing a new head coach is underway and we will continue to keep supporters up to date throughout the coming days.
