Burnley Sack Manager Sean Dyche As They Fight Off Relegation

Burnley have made an unbelievable decision of Seab Dyche packing.

Dyche has been sacked as the manager of the English club, Burnley after ten years of his stay at Turf Moor.

The decision might have been a result of the club fighting off relegation as they are four points above safety with just eight games left.

Assistant manager Ian Woan, first-team coach Steve Stone and goalkeeping coach Billy Mercer have also left the club.

Chairman Alan Pace said: “Firstly, we would like to place on record our sincere thanks to Sean and his staff for their achievements at the Club over the last decade.

“During his time at Turf Moor, Sean has been a credit both on and off the pitch, respected by players, staff, supporters, and the wider football community.

“However, results this season have been disappointing and, while this was an incredibly difficult decision, with eight crucial games of the campaign remaining, we feel a change is needed to give the squad the best possible chance of retaining its Premier League status.

“The process of replacing Sean has begun and further announcements will be made to supporters in due course.”

Dyche famously led Burnley to the Europa League in 2018, the club’s first taste of European football in 51 years.

That followed after a career-best seventh-place finish in the Premier League for Dyche.

Burnley came 17th last season, one place above the drop, but did so with 11 points to spare.

They find themselves fighting for safety again and travel to West Ham on Sunday, doing so without Dyche in charge for the first time in a decade.
