Hull City have sacked head coach Tim Walter after just 18 games in charge.
Hull were beaten 2-0 by Sheffield Wednesday on Tuesday night and are now winless in nine matches, sitting inside the Championship relegation zone.
The club finished seventh last season, three points outside of the play-offs, but sacked manager Liam Rosenior in May before appointing Walter, who has won three of his 17 league games in charge and also oversaw defeat in the Carabao Cup.
Assistant head coaches Julian Hubner and Filip Tapalovic have also left the club.
