Stowell and Powell to take temporary charge
Leicester City has today announced that they will be parting company with manager Paulo Sousa, with immediate effect.
Current goalkeeper coach, Mike Stowell and coach Chris Powell, will take temporary dual charge of the first-team for Saturday's match against Scunthorpe United at the Walkers Stadium.
The decision has been taken as a result of the club's poor run of results this season.
The club would like to state that Paulo Sousa is a first-class individual, but that this decision has been taken in the best interests of the club and our ambitions to move up the npower Championship.
The search for a new manager begins immediately and the Club anticipates a quick appointment.
Expect Martin O'Neill to be appointed sometime next week!
According to SSN, both MON and erickson have held talks with Leicester
