Sheffield United can confirm that football manager Paul Heckingbottom has been relieved of his duties.
Additionally, coaches Stuart McCall and Mark Hudson, have also left the club.
United's chief executive officer, Stephen Bettis commented: “Firstly, on behalf of the board of directors, I'd like to thank Paul for all of his efforts at Sheffield United, firstly as U23s manager before stepping up to take control of first-team duties.
“His professionalism and dedication have been a credit to the club and I'm sure all Unitedites enjoyed the promotion-winning campaign.
“However, after slipping to the bottom of the table and a number of disappointing results and performances, it is felt that a change is needed to give the club a boost and every possible chance of remaining in the Premier League beyond this season.”
It is the club's hope to have a new manager in place before Wednesday evening's fixture against Liverpool.
