Sheffield Wednesday have sacked manager Xisco Munoz with the Owls rooted to the bottom of the Championship table.<\/p>\n
Munoz departs in the wake of his side’s 1-0 defeat at West Brom on Tuesday night which extended their winless start in the competition this season to 10 games.<\/p>\n
Wednesday said in a statement that Munoz and his backroom staff have left with immediate effect and under-21s manager Neil Thompson will take charge for Saturday’s clash with Huddersfield.<\/p>\n
Wednesday added: ‘The Owls would like to thank Xisco and his staff for their services and wish them well for the future.<\/p>\n
‘The process to appoint a new manager is now underway and we will make no further comment at this time.’<\/p>\n
Former Watford boss Xisco was appointed in July following the surprise departure of Darren Moore, who led them to promotion via the League One play-offs.<\/p>\n
His dismissal comes in a turbulent period for the club after owner Dejphon Chansiri responded to criticism by publishing a long statement last week threatening to withdraw all future funding from the club.<\/p>\n
