Just in: Claude Puel sacked by Leicester City

Claude Puel has paid for Leicester City’s dismal home form by being sacked.

The Frenchman has been handed his marching orders by Foxes chiefs following Saturday’s 4-1 thrashing by Crustal Palace.

Puel has won just four of 13 games at the King Power Stadium, losing seven – including the last four in succession.

Now, with Leicester having fallen to 12th in the table, the ex- Southampton boss has been axed.
