Middlesbrough have sacked manager Chris Wilder, with the club 22nd in the Championship.
Boro have won only two of their 11 league games this season, with Wilder’s last game being a 1-0 defeat at bottom club Coventry City on Saturday.
Wilder, 55, had only been in charge for 11 months after replacing the previous coach Neil Warnock.
Goalkeeping coach Leo Percovich has been placed in temporary charge, his first match in charge will be Wednesday’s home game against Birmingham City.
