Stoke City have sacked manager Michael O'Neill.

The Potters finished a disappointing 14th last season and have opened this campaign with just one win in their first five matches.

They also exited the Carabao Cup at the first round stage, losing on penalties to League One Morecambe.

O'Neill had been in charge at the Bet365 Stadium since November 2019 and has become the first managerial casualty since the Championship season started.

Seven clubs changed their manager during pre-season.

Stoke lost 2-0 at Millwall on the opening day of the season before beating Blackpool by the same scoreline.

They subsequently lost 3-1 at Huddersfield Town, drew 2-2 with Middlesbrough and then suffered a 1-0 home loss to Sunderland on Saturday that sealed O'Neill's fate.
