Fulham have sacked manager Claudio Ranieri following Wednesday’s 2-0 loss at Southampton that moved the club closer to relegation from the Premier League.
Claudio Ranieri led Leicester City to an unforgettable title triumph in 2015-16, only managed three wins in 17 games in charge of Fulham.
His tenure also included a 2-1 defeat to League Two Oldham in the third round of the FA Cup and the Southampton loss was the Cottagers’ fourth consecutive top-flight reverse.
The result left Fulham 10 points from safety with as many matches remaining this season and travelling supporters aimed chants of “you don’t know what you’re doing” in Ranieri’s direction at St Mary’s.
Former England midfielder Scott Parker will take over on an interim basis until the end of the campaign.
