Just in: Craig Shakespeare sacked by Leicester after miserable start
Leicester have sacked Craig Shakespeare after a dismal start to the season at the King Power.
The Foxes are in the bottom three after just one win from their opening eight Premier League games.
Monday night's 1-1 draw at home to West Brom was the final straw for Leicester chiefs.
Shakespeare landed the Foxes job on a full-time basis following a successful spell in caretaker charge following the dismissal of Claudio Ranieri.
However, he has followed Ranieri out of the door, according to BBC, Sky Sports, Daily Mail, Leicester Mercury and other major media in UK.
Shakespeare leaves the King Power after 26 games at the helm.
Leicester have won 11 games since Shakespeare took over from Ranieri in February, drawing six and losing the other nine.
However, they have endured a torrid time this term and Foxes chiefs have decided to wield the axe.
Riyad Mahrez's late equaliser rescued a point against West Brom as their home hoodoo against the Baggies continued.
