Crystal Palace sack Patrick Vieira after winless streak

Crystal Palace have sacked manager Patrick Vieira after a run of one win in 13 Premier League games.

Palace chairman Steve Parish told the club website: "It is with enormous regret that this difficult decision has been made.

"Ultimately, results in recent months have placed us in a precarious league position and we felt a change is necessary to give us the best chance of retaining Premier League status."

Vieira had been in charge at Selhurst Park since July 2021.
